I have a question about using 1 panelview with 2 PLCs.

First my setup:

PLC1=SLC 5/05 IP address 192.168.2.100
PanelView= IP address 192.168.2.101
PLC2=ML1100 IP address 192.168.2.102

The PLC1 and Panelview are already being used. The shortcut for all the existing panelview screens is called C0840 and is pointed to PLC1 at the above IP address.

Existing panelview pushbutton example: {::[C0840]B3:6/0}

I want to add PLC2 on the network and use the existing panelview to control some I/O in it. Is it as easy as creating the new screens and creating another shortcut pointing to the IP address of PLC2 called C0841 and then using the new panelview buttons in the following address: {::[C0841]B3:6/0}


Thanks
Ken
