Default Faderport v2 Single Fader

Hello,
I've been following along for the last month or so and it really is great to see so much amazing collaboration.

Yesterday I started building a mapping for my Faderport v2 single fader version. I'm in discovery mode at the moment, trying to understand how this stuff hangs together. I randomly chose to use FP2's MCU Logic mode and have had some success with mapping the transport and some of the basic buttons, which is great. But, I have found that the MIDI that comes out of all of the FP2 modes is inconsistent.

Question 1
I have been having some problems with the CSI Actions, in fact in most cases I ended up using the reaper action
Code:
This works
Solo		Reaper		"40281"

This doesn't
Solo		TrackSolo
Should TrackSolo be working at the moment? Does it have to be in a specific Zone?


Question 2
Working with the solo button again
Code:
Solo button midi
21:19:05.134	From PreSonus FP2	Note On	1	90 08 7F
21:19:05.134	From PreSonus FP2	Note On	1	90 08 00

My Solo Widget
Widget Solo
	Press 90 08 7f
	FB_TwoState 90 08 7f 90 08 00
WidgetEnd
This works fine


SHIFT & Solo button midi
21:19:05.134	From PreSonus FP2	Note On	1	90 47 7F
21:19:05.134	From PreSonus FP2	Note On	1	90 08 7F
21:19:05.134	From PreSonus FP2	Note On	1	90 08 00
21:19:05.134	From PreSonus FP2	Note On	1	90 47 00
How do I write a Widget that can handle two sets of midi (SHIFT #47 & Solo #8)?

Question 3
Faders, or more accurately A Fader.
Most of the examples I have seen are for controllers with a bunch of faders, I only have one and I cant for the life of work out how the Widget and Action need to be configured.

Code:
The fader midi looks like this
21:28:28.135	From PreSonus FP2	Pitch Wheel	1	E0 70 14
21:28:28.155	From PreSonus FP2	Pitch Wheel	1	E0 60 17
21:28:28.175	From PreSonus FP2	Pitch Wheel	1	E0 00 1B
21:28:28.195	From PreSonus FP2	Pitch Wheel	1	E0 20 1E
21:28:28.215	From PreSonus FP2	Pitch Wheel	1	E0 10 21
21:28:28.235	From PreSonus FP2	Pitch Wheel	1	E0 30 23

Ive tried loads of permutations of channel in the IncludedZones Section
Zone Home
	IncludedZones
		"Buttons|"
		"channel|"
		"channel|1"
		"channel|1-1"
		"channel"		
	IncludedZonesEnd
ZoneEnd

I tried a bunch of permutations of Zone "Channel|", with and without the pipe, with and without TrackNavigator but no luck.

And in the mst file I tried 
Widget Fader
  ....

and 

Widget Fader1
  ....

But no luck. The fader is not for moving!
Needless to say any advice, help, examples would be very gratefully received.
