WARNING !!!! FIRST NEVER WORK ON ANYTHING CONNECTED TO A AD200 or AD200 PRO EVEN IF YOU TURN OFF THE FLASH & REMOVE THE BATTERY THERE IS NO SAFETY BLEEDER RESISTOR IN THE GODOX UNIT & THE CONNECTOR WILL STILL HAVE 330 VOLTS DC ON IT EVEN DAYS LATER!!!!!!!

In only one of your fresnel speedlight heads per the photo above with the head removed remove R1 & R2.

In the photo above see the wire colors. Do not splice the orange wire but Put high voltage shrink tubing on it to insulate it, as it is not connected at the far head end of the extension cable. Splice all the other wires same color to same color, red, black, white, blue, green, & yellow, make sure to insulate them well where you make your y connection!

I believe this will work OK for your needs!

The unmodified head will have the modeling light work as before.

DO NOT EVER CONNECT MORE THAN ONE UNMODIFIED HEAD TO YOUR Y CABLE AS IT MAY DAMAGE (CATCH FIRE) YOUR HEADS OR FLASH UNIT!!!!
