QU16 with ATEM Switcher

I have a QU16 with the latest firmware. I am unable to configure it to work the audio mixer on the Blackmagic ATEM 4M/E 12G.
I have failed to get them to talk to each other through my MAC with Catalina. It work fine with the Behringer X-touch.
The following is a link to the ATEM 3rd party audio.
Any help would be appreciated.

the X-touch is not talking to the Atem
only to the software

The Atem responds to Mackie codes, and the qu16 emulates Mackie. Other desks work, either the uq16 does, or does not work with the ATEM, I just don’t want to waste time if they are incompatible.

I have the same issue with SQ6 not controlling the Atem. Is there any definitive answer to Atem compatiblity with A&H mixers? is there any support ticket regarding this or have I got the wrong mixing desk for the job? thanks.

TBH, what is the job?
