PDI Turbo Zeta

I finally found a programing box for my PDI Turbo Zeta. Thanks to Lowgear for pointing it out to me. I've been tinkering with the ESC for the past two nights trying to get it working in my Clodbuster. I have no problem programming forward. It is hooked up to run two 6 cell packs in parallel and I've got another 6 cell pack for reverse. I can't seem to get reverse to work on this ESC. I know it is different from other ESCs, and that you are supposed to "shift" into reverse. I haven't been able to figure this out for the life of me. I can't even get a brake to work yet. I haven't installed any capacitors on the motors yet, but I can't believe that would be the problem. Does anyone here have any suggestions for properly programming reverse on the Turbo Zeta? I really want to use this ESC in my old school Clod, but if I can't figure out reverse or at least a braking feature, it will have to remain on the shelf. I did change the ESC's internal battery for a new one.
