Midi Sync to External Arranger Keyboard

Can anyone help me with midi syncing in S1. I am a S1 newbie migrating from Cakewalk where I could set the DAW to “midi sync” with either internal or external clock. I could then press “record “ and the DAW would wait until I played the keyboard to start recording. It would also work the other way round - pressing record on the DAW would initiate playback on the Korg Pa4X. That's actually what I would like to do now. I am not a good pianist and rely on keyboard features to get what I want. (I actually want to sync midi output from the Pa4X to a S1 song with a very variable tempo).
I have pressed the “sync “ button on the bottom strip of S1, and set the "send midi clock" etc in S1 but nothing seems to work. Grateful for any help.
 
S1 can't sync to midi clock. It can send it out though.

So if you send midi clock out then you would set your external equipment to slave.


Down in the middle it says add device it has send midi clock
 
Thank you. I will try and think how I can achieve what I want to do.
