It's in the manual somewhere -- you create a midi file with your chords, load them up and away you go. Only works in controller mode, AFAIK.

If I'm not mistaken Masada Trent did a video on this, look up cycle kits on YT, he also has some progressions for sale so it definitely can be done....

Just go to 'Tools > Convert to Progression' and this converts the current track to a progression. Very simple, but MPC Software computer GUI only.
Not aware of any way to transfer these over to standalone mode though, not looked into it, but would assume it requires internal disk access, so not possible.
