Hoglet 4 and Qlab Network

Question

I have a Hoglet 4 light table. I use my light table with my computer windows 10 installed without any problems.
I have 1 mac m1 computer and the Qlab program is installed on this computer. I control the led screen on my stage with the qlab program on my Mac computer. And I have one HOG MIDI / TC controller. I want to synchronize qlab program with hoglet 4
Could you please tell me where to connect the cables of my midi controller and what settings to make on my mac and windows computers, step by step, please someone help me, I couldn't find a detailed video on this subject on the internet.

Hi there, It looks like you might be missing one piece of equipment. With the MIDI/LTC widget, you have the connection to the PC covered, but we still need to make sure MIDI is connected to the MAC. M-Audio makes a simple interface that works great, https://m-audio.com/products/view/uno . Connect the Uno's out to the Hog widgets in, and the Uno's in to the widgets out. 
 The next step will be to make sure Hog PC and QLab are set to use their respective MIDI devices. Here is the page from the manual that covers selecting the proper Midi device. https://www.etcconnect.com/WebDocs/Controls/Hog4/index.htm#21_MIDI/MIDINoteandCCoutput.htm?TocPath=21%2520-%2520MIDI%257C_____3 This page also covers how to send MIDI notes from the Hog PC. This is probably the easiest way to have both applications operate together. 
 In Qlab, you need to set the midi patch as explained here, https://qlab.app/docs/v5/fundamentals/workspace-settings/#midi . 
 Once you've configured the midi notes inside of the Hog PC, you can navigate to the triggers tab of the inspector in QLab. https://qlab.app/docs/v5/fundamentals/inspector/#the-triggers-tab Here you can manually enter the note information or simply select capture and play the note from Hog PC. Once this is set, when you play the cue on the Hog with the MIDI note macro, QLab will fire the cue associated with that note. 
 
 Hope this helps, 
 Joe
