Noobie questions about P5

I have downloaded the trial version of P5, and I have a few questions:

1) When inserting Cyclone, and loading an acidized wav file in it, Cyclone does not respond
to the P5 tempo. Is there some setting somewhere to enable this?

2) When playing just the Groove Matrix, the Arranger windows ALWAYS starts recording,
even though, the button for "ARM Groove Matrix for Recording" is NOT armed,
and also the the ARROW for all Groove Matrix Cells is ONLY pointing toward the Groove Matrix.
Is there a way to use JUST the Groove matrix, and NOT have the Arranger Pane activated?

Thanks for any help.

1. Thank you very much. I made sure the the pad clock icon was on, and it worked fine, following
the P5 tempo. Cyclone is just a little jerky during live tempo changes, even in Sonar.

2. Thanks for also clarifying that the pane cursor will always move on the Arranger Pane, even
when not recording. It really doesn't annoy me, but I thought there might be some way to turn
it off. I think I'll follow your suggestion about stretching the GM over it, for a clearer GUI.
