I have two irc5 controllers working together can I use cross-connection to see I/O from both controllers?

    Are you talking about from a PLC or from one robot to another?  Cross connection means that an input can be cross connected to an output, for example.  Like an echo back signal that does not have to be handled programmatically.

    from one robot to another robot, trying to get it so I/O's communicate between both robots without a PLC.

    Do they have devicenet option?  Any other industrial network option?  Like Ethernet IP or others?
