MIDI control of Behringer?

Pro Audio Asylum

Pro studio recording equipment and music production/industry.

I'm using a Feedback Destroyer 1100P and DSP1100 MIDI software with my Hitachi Multimedia Notebook Computer (Windows 95) with a Parallel port Midiman 1x1 Portman/P adapter. All computer MIDI input and output parameters are set to Portman/P-IN and Portman/P-Out selections in the laptop's Control panel as well as the DSP1100 MIDI software program settings.
I initially set the 1100P's MIDI parameters with the BFD's front panel buttons to the following settings:
page1--> 1c
page2--> 1o
page3--> 4C
page4--> 3P
page5--> 1S
page6--> 1d
1) When I initially load the DSP1100 program on the laptop, everything in the program window is greyed out.
2) When I select "New" from the file menu, I get two new program windows titled "Unnamed1-1" and "Unnamed1-2" and everything in the program window now appears active.
3) The "Unnamed1-2" program window has all the filter programs and parameter values displayed plus "Load" and "Store" buttons in the upper right corner of the window. All the filters (1-12) are showing values of:
PAR, 500Hz, 0dB, and 60/60 Oct.
4) The "Unnamed1-1" program window has a straight line graph and the "dB" level meter on the right. In this window, clicking the "I/O" button below the "dB" level meter toggles the "In/Out" button on the front panel of the 1100P in and out of "bypass-blinking" mode. Therefore I know I'm communicating with the 1100P hardware through the MIDI interface.
5) If I click in the "Unnamed1-2" window, then select Program 8, and then click the "Load" button, the "In/Out" button on the front of the 1100P flickers and program number "8" shows up on the 1100P's front LED display. Again, I know I'm communicating with the 1100P hardware.
6) I can't seem to get any filter values I manually enter through the DSP1100 software to replace any of the filters in the 1100P hardware itself or to have any effect on the music program material that is playing (when I toggle bypass mode on and off). In other words the "Store" button in the DSP1100 software doesn't seem to work or do anything.
QUESTIONS:
1) How do I get any parametric filter changes I make in the DSP1100 MIDI software program's "Unnamed1-2" window to actually load
into the 1100P hardware memory for a specified program number? How do I then save these filter settings for that specific program number into the 1100P hardware memory?
2) How do I load any of the 1100P's current hardware program number filter settings into the DSP1100 MIDI software program?

Sure hope someone can help me out.
