Ground Control + GCX + Axess CFX4

I'm using 1 GCX for stomp pedals and have connected the Axess CFX4 for switching a Mesa amp. The CFX4 is connected as "GCX2" 1-4.

My question is....
If I want to connect a Second GCX, would I connect it as "GCX3" in Ground Control?

Thanks!

The CFX-4 will only respond to CC 80-95 when set up to respond to control change messages. This means it can only function as GCX-1 or GCX-2 when configuring it as a GCX.

This means that to add a 2nd GCX you would have to add it in the chain after the CFX-4 so that the GCP will see it as GCX-3 and the CFX-4 would remain as GCX-2 loops 1-4.

Thanks Jon!
I did my home work but wanted to make sure that I was correct.
Appreciate the quick response!
