This configuration of a single pike controlling two solenoids was an allowed wiring configuration in [possibily distant] past seasons. Keep an eye out for the QandA item. Answers in the QandA are subject to change.

Specifically, I was thinking of using a single spike to drive two single action solenoids (such as the Festo) as shown in the attached picture. This is from the spike manual. However, a post on the Q&A forum disallows this type of usage, hence the confusion.

EDIT: It appears that the question I am referring to has been removed from the Q&A forum.
