Hi I'm on a canal boat at the moment without FCP to hand, but I had a similar issue and had to use the Firewire Basic setting with the deck rather than the one I thought was the obvious choice.
I assume you've already tried a few of the settings, but have another fiddle, just change one thing at a time and try again. FCP likes to be completely shut then re-opened to detect external devices so it can be a pain. I'd say it was a setting issue rather than 3 decks not working though, that seems highly un-likely. Let us know how you get on and please keep posting here, it really IS interesting.
