YAMAHA MOXF & CUBASE 5

I recently got a used yamaha moxf6 which meant it did not come with the bundled software, That did not seem to be a problem because I had a version of cubase 5. The problem came after installing the remote tools extensions. I have noticed that the moxf does not control the Daw (play, pause,stop,record), instead every time I use the control buttons on the board, I notice the midi input signal flashing as though I were actually playing the keys.

Anyone know a possible solution to this problem. I used to have the MOX & it never gave me issues but now Im a bit stuck.
