Cp3 Slaved To a CP4
Can this be done? I have a job where I need additional IR outputs at a remote location and happen to have a CP3 that I can use but just want to reality check it before that becomes the plan.

Yep, can be done just like slaving a 2 series to 3 or 4 series

I'd suggest going master-to-master using ethernet xsig. I've had some occasional reliability problems using slave configs. Says connected, but it isn't kind of thing.

100%. Already have a few projects with 3-series slaved to 4-series. Even at home I have an RMC3 doing some Christmas lighting duties that is slaved to the 4-series running the house.

Thanks everyone. Just wanted to sanity check myself.

You can either slave it or just put the IR drivers in a SIMPL program on the CP3 and EISC the signals over to the CP4.
