    You can control all three with a single VDM; you connect the Neptune Advanced Dimming cable between the VDM and one SOL, then daisy-chain the other two SOLs off the first SOL. All three fixtures will then be controlled as one.

    If you want each fixture to be independently controlled, then you will need three VDMs.
    Please do not send me PMs with technical questions or requesting assistance - use the forums for Apex help. PM me ONLY if the matter is of a private or personal nature. Thanks.

    Whoever you talked to at BRS did not know what they are talking about. There are two communication jacks on the side of an AI SOL. On the first sol connect the advanced dimming cable between the VDM and the sol in the input port of the sol. Connect the output port of the first SOL to the input port of the next SOL with a stereo cable. Repeat the last step for additional lights.

    You might be an engineer if...You have no life and can prove it mathematically.
