Hey, this might be silly but please try the following:

New fixtures have 'Operation Mode' options in their settings (on the actual fixture).

When I started up my fixtures for the first time, they were set to 'Basic' operation mode, and I couldn't figure out why I was missing some channels.
I changed it to 'Advanced' and got the full number of channels.

Hope this helps,
