Rene,
Use the Scene Ctrl buttons (above the Ribbon Controller) to toggle
between the two scenes in a Dual Voice; then use the Rx Ch under
UTILITY/SETUP to set individual MIDI Channels for each Scene in your
Dual Voice. Your AN1x should now respond on both MIDI Channels.
It's
important to understand how the Layer options for Voices work when
using the AN!x as a bitimbral tone generator - otherwise you'll get
unexpected results. Dual Mode and Split Mode are the obvious choices
to begin with.

regards,
Jon
