How to determine lambda vs delta isomer of octahedral metal complexes?

So I know lambda is left handed and delta is right handed, but how do you determine handiness of octahedral complexes?

If there are different substituents they are numered according to atomic number of atom linked to the metal (highest atomic number have priority).
