It can't. If my memory serves me right, there are two likely possibilities
of getting two the same I2C devices to work.
First, and trivial case: they are on two different busses.
Second, the 7111's have two possible addresses, indead 0x48 and I don't
know the other one by heart.

If they are really on the same bus, and have the same address, there's no
distinguishing between them. I believe behaviour of the I2C bus is
undefined in this case.
