Sonar, Toneport UX8 and a Footswitch

[royalt213]

So, this is probably a stupid question, but...I have a simple two-button footswitch that goes to the TRS "footswitch" input on my Toneport UX8 and I'm running Cakewalk Sonar 7. I can't figure out how to get it to do the simplest of things: make one button hit record and the other hit stop. Line 6 has pretty crappy documentation for this kind of stuff. Cakewalk is a lot more thorough, but their thoroughness is probably more than what I'm looking for.

I've been reading help files and manuals to no avail. The footswitch is a no-namer. Any basic advice that any of you could give me?
