Default Dimmer issues..

I'm using a TCVR-2 dimmer module that I got from Stein.

I'm having a heck of a time getting it to work properly with my G3X based panel.

I'm trying to setup the the dimmer using a single POT in the slaved mode.

According to the instructions I needed to remove one of the resistors for this (I did).

I have hooked up the HI lines from the two G3X screens, along with the GTN650 the GMA audio panel, and the GMC Auto Pilot panel.

I can not get them all to play nice together. If I hook the primary G3X up to input one, and the secondary screen to input two, they work backwards from each other.

If I hook them both up to input one they work properly.

However I can not get the GMC or GMA to work properly. I.e. no backlight at all on the audio panel, and the GMC either flashes or is full bright.

This has turned out to be the biggest pain of anything in the entire panel wiring...

Thanks for any suggestions/help!

-Dan
