You filled in the "Acts on:" column for your channels in the mode editor. The docs clearly state that this should stay empty, it's a rarely used feature for certain inter-dependent channels in some devices.

If you only want to use your fixture in 6 channel mode, you could also use the Fixture Definition of the American DJ Pinspot LED quad DMX.
It uses the same channels in the same order.
