Actually,based on your description, it's the other way around. The 
AN1x has nothing to do with how your JP responds to program 
change commands. The AN1x is dutifully transmitting program 
change commands as it should. The only option on the AN1x 
which would affect the transmission of MIDI Events is the MIDI Tx 
Ch setting - which can be set to one of sixteen channels or OFF.

The JP series supports two layers per sound - 'tones', right? Are 
there independent MIDI Rx Channnels for each 'tone'? If so, it's 
possible you need to disable the program change receive for 
BOTH tones in your JP patches. One would think this would be a 
global setting but it is possible Roland limited it to a per patch 
basis - stranger things have happened.

Could you please provide more details regarding your set-up. 
Are you simply using AN1x MIDI Out --> JP MIDI In or are you 
using a MIDI patch bay/interface in conjunction with a software 
sequencer?
