IA switch for patch change with backtracking

Hi gang, I'm getting stuck after I thought I followed directions in the MFC-101 manual.

I'm changing up my foot controller setup and this is what I want:
Buttons 1-5 for scenes
Buttons 6-10 to function like IA that toggle blocks on and off
Buttons 11+ for special effects (e.g. flute, organ, synth patches)

I setup IA11 to none (to disable any block activity in a scene)
IA11 pON PC#20 (to switch to patch 20 for the different sound)
IA11 pOF PC#OFF (when I tried setting it to #20, I think it just retransmitted the patch change to 20 and wouldn't let me navigate away. I could not find a BAK setting)

I went to EDIT->SETUP and set GlobalPreset to BAK. I verified EDIT->PRESET for 20 is set to GBL (global) for alternate patch. I also tried manually setting it to BAK but didn't make a difference.

What am I missing here? I googled for a while, read the manual, checked Yek's old wiki pages that took me in circles, can't figure out how to do this. Thanks in advance for any help.
 
Global Preset and other Preset switch functions are for Preset Switches specifically, not General IA switches you set to do a Program Change message. i'm guessing you set your Bank Size to 0 - that means there are no Preset Switches on your setup, so Global Preset wouldn't do anything at all.
