Your RSLogix5000 is the software you use for all the tasks your list, however it needs to be the same (major) version as the PLC you are connecting to i.e. Logix v20 for 1756 v20. With RSLinx you should be able to connect your laptop ethernet port to 1756 ethernet card or USB to PLC USB port, this will ...

Is there, maybe, a master reset that can be done on the processor without turning it into a brick? Yes there is a small hole under the run switch where you can insert a paperclip while powering up, this clears the memory - useful on a safety PLC when you can't remember the password ;0

Put the other PLC in each others IO tree at the bottom, with their IP addresses, then configure your produced tags with 1 consumer, then your consumed tags with the producer selected from the IO tree, make sure both PLC are set to same task rates. are you sending safety tags?

Your FPD likely provides Emergency stopped power to the output cards so that all points on those cards will be off for an E-stop. So you should put your input card before the FPD and re-map the 2 output cards Steve
