How can I use a MIDI pedal to toggle between multiple MIDI presets in a song?

I have MIDI presets setup in my BandHelper to control my DMX lights (Photon2), and have them assigned to songs.  Some songs have only one preset assigned and others have 2 or 3. 

I am using a MIDI Baby3 pedal and it works to trigger the FIRST preset (and only the first) on any song just fine.  But I want to be able to hit the same "button" on it to toggle to the next preset (and then the next...) inside the same song when I have several assigned to it.

I can physically select it off the list that I have showing in my layout, and it works.  I just want to be able to do this with a pedal, while playing...

You can map your foot switch to Settings > App Control > Actions > All > Next MIDI Preset (instead of Send MIDI, which it sounds like you're using now) and turn on Settings > App Control > Wrap Next/Previous Attachments if you want to be able to advance from the last preset back to the first preset.
