I want one SIDD to be added without DHCP, to be have access to the Domain resources the other Hard Wired PCs have.  The Domain Server will supply the addressing.

The WAC540 are (like all WAC5xx [leaving the WAC510 router mode alone] or WAX6xx are plain access points and don't have and DHCP service on board.

 

Very different, your Domain Server (assume you talk of a Windows Domain Server) does - like any other system supplying IP addresses - does make use of DHCP.

I want the other two SIDDS to be internet only, give out there own addressing on separate subnet, for internet access only.

For this purpose you need a proper isolated subnet, typically configured in the form of 802.1q VLANs, and served/assisted by a router or the like again doing the DHCP for each individual network, and handling the Internet traffic as per your requirements. Beyond of the SSID<->VLAN association, there is nothing such an access point does in this game.

 

Needless to say, you need switche(s) on the network where you can configure and deal with VLANs, VLAN trunk(s) (to the AP, router, and other switches),  ...
