Please how do you midi a device to a Roland AT 80 SL ?

I recently changed from an Orla GT9000 to the Roland AT80 SL, quite a culture shock ! much more going on and masses of information in a very good manual but not enough info on midi set ups for me. I have used a Technics KN700 keyboard for some years because of it's SD memory cards which give me a huge library of styles. These were necessary in my view to supplement the very basic rhythms on some of my earlier organs.
So I thought this would be a breeze, I would have the best of both worlds but not yet I am afraid. . Connected exactly as with previous organs and checking the midi settings in the Roland manual all seems in order but pressing a chord on the lower manual of the organ should be duplicated on the keyboard and the accompaniment should change with the chord change as usual.
But the keyboard is not responding so obviously it is not receiving any signals
I posted this in the hope that someone is using a Roland AT 80 or similar with a midi device and would be prepared to pass on their settings, any tips gratefully received.
I have connected exactly as my previous organs and checked the Roland manual's settings and can find no error but I must be doing something wrong.
The unhelpful statement I received from Roland support was that Roland themselves do not involve themselves with owners of their discontinued products !
