If I were you. I would not try using a second slot. Overwrite the first program with the updated keeping the extracted file to put back in incase needed. Crestron will not allow you to use a previously used ipid on a lot of devices. Like, if you are using a TCP/IP server on ipid 03 in program 1 you can't use ipid 03 in any other program.
If you look at your error log, you will most likely see a bunch of errors when slot 7 loads saying that it could not bind ipid xx because it is already in use.
This would explain why you are not getting feedback if that feedback is coming from a Ethernet for Cresnet device.
