MP-201 questions (midi configuration)

i have bought MP-201 and had a whole day of exploring this new tool. it's powerfull controller but i'm a bit confused how it works / how to set it up.
let me ask some questions:

1. how it works as a normal midi interface?
i have connected midi synth (Nord Rack 2) to MP-201 and triggering a midi sequence from Logic 9. with most of the MP-201 presets my synth plays midi but when i scroll to MP-201 preset #33 - no sounds from synth. why?
i have tried to make some parameters changes but no luck. no midi come out from MP-201 when preset #33 is selected.
what should be changed (what parameters in preset #33) to make it work?

2. how midi clock works?

how to set up MP-201 to sync Roland SH-101 internal sequencer to be retriggered in Ableton Live tempo?

thanks!

I not sure but maybe it only sends CV on #33.
Every preset has an "output" setting:
Only midi / Only CV / Both.

The thing is i want better to understand the MP-201. It's really not clear for me.

I have changed the outputs for both but no success. I consider that every preset parameters can be changed freely.

?

You just got to spend a lot of time messing with it.

..and read the manual thoroughly 3 times a day.
