Anyone an expert at getting the Roland JV1080 to work in performance mode with Sonar?

Here is my dilemma.

1. First, I load the template file for performance mode to send the system exclusive data to turn on performance mode.
2. Next, I imported the .ins file for instrument definitions for this unit.
3. The unit goes into performance mode, no problem, but instead of accessing the individual performances i.e. 1-32 user, 1-32 Perf A or 1-32 Perf B, it accesses the standard patches found in patch mode. This is not a bad thing because I can play 16 different parts at once however; I want to get at the pre-designed performances, not the individual patches.

This make any sense?

Isn't there a separate INS that is used to control the 1080 when in Performance Mode?
 
Thanks for responding and yes I have this ins file. It is not working however. It kicks in performance mode but does not acutally work when trying to select the individual performances from the banks.
