I was going to write a lengthy response, but Qbranch is right on the money.
A few more details:
The Jaguar's optoisolator has a logic level converter in it. This allows it to work with about a quarter of the signal current on the outside world side. This means it can use a larger balancing resistor, which in turn implies that it shares signal current better.
The DSC should definitely be able to drive three victors, provided they aren't all on the same port. It will only support controlling up to 2 Victors per port using a Y-cable.
Lastly, what problems did you have? We should probably move this discussion to personal messages to avoid clogging the thread.
