Using a spike with a VEX controller?

Does anyone know how to interface a spike with a vex controller?

I know that on the IFI controllers each relay output has a FWD and REV that each can be 0 or 1.

On the vex controller it's just a single output at 0 or 1.

Can I just use two digital outputs on the vex controller per spike? One as FWD and one as REV? How would this be wired?
