The mode used for the cells needs to have gaps in the channel offsets. So Red = 1, Green = 4, Blue = 7, White = 10.

In more detail:

- Create dimmer, red, green, blue, white, special effect and speed effect attributes
- Add a hidden mode for the cells containing red, green, blue and white with channel offsets 1, 4, 7 and 10 respectively
- Add the main mode, add dimmer to the master section by holding Alt
- Select the mode.
- Select cells
- Set quantity to 3, select the cell mode and add (it will automatically set the start addresses to 2, 3 and 4 and interleave the controls as necessary)
- Select the master section and add the remaining effect controls

hidden mode for cell is fasle or true ??

True.

It is not important. It just stops it from appearing as option when chosing modes during patch.
