Integrex 200-IVST: Lower turrent setup and EIA gcode calls

Slowly learning to use our new-to-us Integrex and I'm stumped on how to use the lower turret on the sub-spindle.

You can't use the TOOL EYE to specify tool parameters, and I don't see a way to use MDI to specify a tool to use on the right side.

The manuals don't help much (or I'm not finding the help) -- does anyone have a handy cheat sheet that would help?

1) What's the best way to set up lower turret tool offsets, etc?

2) How do you specify a lower turret tool to use on the subspindle in MDI?

3) How do you specify a lower turret tool to use on the subspindle in EIA?

Using the Matrix control.
 
Are you trying to use the tool data page or the tool offset page? If you're trying to use tool offset, you're gonna have a bad time on a MKIV. Tool data can be used interchangeably between the mazatrol side and the EIA side of the control.
 
Using the tool data pages for each tool.

My issue is as basic as knowing how to use gcode to position a tool on the lower turret for use on the sub-spindle.

I'm also wondering if there is a way to use the Tool Eye for lower turret tools used on the sub spindle.

Thanks!
