If you look at the demos, you can get the basics of (1) turning remote control mode on and off and (2) doing all sorts of creative things.
Again, if I recall correctly, sending sysex commands is independent of remote control mode, that is, you can send commands (such as changing a set 16 midi knob assignments--MidiA -> MidiP*) without being in remote control mode.
Embedded sysex requires the use of a sequencer (or DAW) that lets you edit, compile, and save standard midi files which then need to be uploaded using e-loader. I haven't tried it with e-mu gear, but possibly midi-ox and similar tools might be used to hand assemble/create sysex strings. If you can do it in a controller, that should work, too.

PPS: I played around a while ago with Jazz-Soft--a tool for using a browser with mid gear. It just dawned on me that you might be able to create a personal/customized html file to send sysex commands to midi gear if it is connected to a computer. Even if ultimately you want to have the sysex commands coming from your keyboard, it might be possible to test the sysex chains via a browser.
Not sure if I wrote about tests with Jazz-Soft here or elsewhere. At one point I was exploring the possibility of having a web-based utility that would do some of what e-loader does (and other functions--such as my syxer utility, a parameterizer for generating presets, etc. ).
I seemed to recall posting the results of tests somewhere, but no one was interested then.

I see that I had buttons for remote control on and off. I also was able to obtain patterns in sysex format by requesting a song and sending acks. As I recall, I just did a hard coded pattern--no inputs for selecting pattern bank and slot. It was a test of concept kind of thing. If people want to develop this further, I'd be happy to share what I know. Unfortunately, I no longer have time and energy to devote to develop something like this the way I imagine it can be used. Also, I cannot keep up with changes in html and other www consortium things.
