  • Page 2 USB Drive HMI RS232 The Montalvo Z4 Controller, with Ethernet Option, can provide communication capability within an industrial Ethernet network (e.g. Ethernet/IP). The module for this option is factory installed. Existing controllers without the option can be upgraded by replacing the HMI Module (or cover plate) with the Ethernet Module.
  • Page 3 The Z4 Ethernet communications board is pre-programmed with the static IP address of 192.168.1.202. This can be changed by connecting both the Z4 and a computer to a local network and using a browser (Firefox, Chrome, etc) to navigate to address 192.168.1.202 and changing the IP address, which can be found under the ‘Configuration’...

  • Page 8 Finding the Z4 on the Network Using IPConfig The first step to changing the Z4 settings is having the IP address of the Z4 controller in order to be able to send network traffic to the device. While the Z4 controller should come pre programmed to use the IP address: 192.168.1.202, it is possible it would have either been...
  • Page 9 Figure 2: Selecting the Configuration menu option for the Z4 controller The Configuration menu for the Z4 will allow for Ethernet configuration, including changing the IP address and turning DHCP functionality on or off. After making a change to these settings, the Z4 controller needs to be power cycled in order for the changes to take effect.
  • Page 10: Ethernet (Option)

    Using the Z4 Controller’s Internal Website The Z4 controller with Ethernet has an internal website built into it that can be used both to interact with the controller as well as to configure the device’s Ethernet settings. The site can be accessed by typing the controller’s IP address 192.168.168.202 into a browser for any...
  • Page 11 The internal site can also be used in order to interact with the Z4 controller itself, serving as a basic HMI over Ethernet. In order to read or write values to the Z4 controller, click on the ‘Parameters’ button on the left side of the screen, which will load the Z4 parameters that can be accessed using the Ethernet interface.
  • Page 12 Config Mode setting from ‘No’ to ‘Yes’. This operation can be performed using either the LCD screen on the face of the Z4 controller or the USB interface. Once done changing the parameters, the Z4 controller should be taken out of Config Mode.
  • Page 13: Troubleshooting

    Z4 is not Responding to Packets Sent to its IP Address • It is possible the Z4 has an IP Address that is shared with another device on the network. Try changing the IP Address of the module using the IPConfig software, and sending packets again.
