Hi I have had my first FC-E 6500 for a couple years now. I bought my second one back in September and just got it put to use recently. I tried for the first time to connect the 2 lights with the rj11 cable following the instructions and having the main light switches all on and the sub light rear switch off connect the rj11 cable and they both turn off no dimming capability. Tried both lights as main and sub no difference. Also tried various different switching but to no avail. Seems like they wired this wrong to me. Anyone else have similar issues? or if you have it working can you post pics of the control board wiring for the dimmer controls with the rj11 jacks.
