Program change INC/DEC with DY footswitch with NE5 or NE6

Hi Folks,
I've to build a DY Footswitch with two stomp switch, I would like to do this with arduino as midi controller to implemet a two button footswitch, to change program up (INC) or DOWN (DEC), the same funcionality is on NS3.
Is there anybody here that implent this?
I've some question about it:
1) Which Program Change Message or Control Change Message corrispond to INC Button?
2) Which Program Change Message or Control Change Message corrispond to DECButton?
Thanks

Neither NE5 nor 6 implement a MIDI CC to increment/decrement the current program, they only respond to absolute Program Change messages (with or without Bank MSB/LSB).

I've supposed.... but how can i send a midi program change to INC/DEC the program on NE5 or NE6?
I saw on this forum a post that explain how to send CC message to change the live program on NE5 but neither of that for NE6?
Thanks

Read again my previous reply then think: unless you build something that "knows" (e.g by listening on MIDI) what the current Program is, you cannot INC/DEC but only send absolute PCs. It is a matter of logic, due to the lack of a specific CC to handle INC/DEC.
