Lightroom Classic 14.5 Photo Mechanic 6 (6552) reads stars but not colours

Lightroom Classic 14.5 reads stars correctly but does not read colours correctly from Photo Mechanic 6 (6552)
Red in PM is white in Lightroom. I use the "lighting set up" on colours and stars. 
Stars read ok

I use the "lighting set up" on colours and stars. 

I don't know what the "lighting set up" is, but the names of the labels needs to match. In Photo Mechanic's General preferences, what are the names of each color with your current settings? In Lightroom when you go to the window where you set your color labels, do the 5 names of the labels match what you have in Photo Mechanic?

Forgive me I am not very experienced. I see the lighting set-up is called the "Snapshot Icon", to me it looks like a lighting symbol.

Match your colors
To make sure your Color Classes match up with the ones in Adobe Lightroom, it is vital that the actual names of the colors match. In Preferences > General, there is a preset “snapshot” that will change the colors in Photo Mechanic to match the ones in Lightroom.
Click the snapshot icon to get a list of presets for matching the colors in other software. (Note: Adobe Lightroom only uses 5 colors, so “Purple” will be duplicated a few times.)""

That will work if Lightroom still has the default set of label names.  If they differ then using those settings won't help.  You should take a look at your Lightroom preferences to see what the current label names are and edit the label names in PM to match.
