Reply to MF Spectra Ableton Help

Just bought a Midifighter Spectra, and I have a few questions.
First: Where is the ableton mode in the Midi fighter utility?

Second: I'd like to use my midifighter to control various patch parameters, e.g. Distortion, Phaser, Chorus etc. I can map the midifighter to turn these parameters on or off, but I can't get the midifighter to stop playing notes. All i'd like it to do is control the patches parameters, not actuate notes. How do I get this setup correctly?
