How do multiple X20 PLCs control share common outputs via Ethernet Powerlink?

Noah,

Thank you so much for your informative response. Intelligent controlled node (iCN) is definitely the answer for my application. However, upon reading the manual, it seems like I will need to have 2 different configurations in Automation Studio to make it work. Is it correct? If so, I will need to create 2 different Project installation package (PIP) for each type of machine ( e.g. managing node and secondary node).

Is there any way that I can create a single Project installation package (PIP) for both managing node and secondary node and dynamically change the node type in runtime?

I attached the preliminary network diagram below for reference.
