As you can see, it has 2 of each terminal. The supplied wiring diagram only shows one being used. I have two identical 24v strips that I want to dim together - can I just wire them both in?

Yes as long as the total power draw (watts / amps) doesn't exceed the controller or the power supply you're using.

You could plug two in even if there were only one set of terminals. You're wiring them in parallel.

Awesome. To be honest, I was expecting to wire the two strips off one terminal so this is a pleasant surprise for keeping it tidy. I was just worried I'd misunderstood something.
