Ok with those settings using the manual I'm looking at the micro-steps are set to 2000. This doesn't ring true to the mach3 steps per setting because it should be 400 if 5mm pitch and 200 if 10mm pitch. You have mach3 set at 125 Steps per which means you can not possibly be moving the correct distance unless the screw pitch is different to 5 or 10mm which I very much doubt.
The motors are 1.8degree so 200 steps per 360degree's and clearly direct drive so there are no ratios applied so that only leaves the screw pitch which can affect the movement and I'd be very very surprised if it's anything but 5mm or 10mm. This means it can't possibly be moving the correct distance unless the dip switch settings are wrong.-use common sense, if you lack it, there is no software to help that.
