Grip shift + Rear derailleur, Setup/Help

hello every one so im very new at this so im sorry if i dont make much sense
I recenlty installed a new rear derailleur and new gripshifts and for some reason it will shift down then when i shift back up it has a hard time getting in to 1, so my question is how do i set it up do i have the grip shift set to 1 or 6 befor i attach the wire to derailer,is the big cog gear 1 or is it the small one, and how much tension should i put on the wire befor i tighten the nut because im pulling it very taut, any way i hope some one can help me.

You shift up going to smaller cogs at the back which are higher number gears, you can't shift up to 1 only down.
You put it in the smallest cog (6th it would seem) when you attach the cable, having set the stop screws first.
