10.2 Ethernet (option)
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. Factory replacement highly recommended.
Note: The HMI Module or Ethernet Module is necessary for connection to the HMI.
New controllers with HMI get HMI module (standard) or Ethernet module (optional).
The Ethernet communications option consists of the following:
• Ethernet Module - factory installed on the controller board
• Ethernet Technical Manual (hard copy). Also available as a pdf download:
http://www.montalvo.com/document-libraries/product-manual-library/ten-
sion-controller-manuals/
Technical Specications for Ethernet interface
• Support for all required administration protocols (DHCP, ICMP, IGMP)
• Support for TCP and UDP application protocols per ODVA Ethernet/IP requirements
• Future support for additional Ethernet based protocols

Features
• ODVA certied industrial Ethernet
• Provides assemblies for streaming data to and from the controller
• Provides a series of tuning parameters to allow adjusting performance on the y
• Load cells or dancer position sensor are the only input that needs to be wired to the controller
• All outputs can be streamed to a PLC or other device on the network
Connecting to the Z4 board
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 ‘Conguration’ tab. The module can
also be congured to support DHCP.

Conguring the Z4 Network Settings
Introduction
While the Z4 comes set up and ready to operate on a network, there are internal tools that
allow for the customization of the device, including changing the IP address, enabling DHCP
functionality and other network behaviors.
Finding the Z4 on the Network Using IPCong
The rst step to changing the Z4 settings is having the IP address of the Z4 controller in order
to be able to send network trafc 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
changed or DHCP enabled. In the event that the IP address is unknown, a program called
‘IPCong’ distributed by HMS Industrial Networks (download here) that will detect all Z4
controllers on the network (and any other devices that are using the Anybus module).
Pressing the ‘Scan’ button on the IPCong home screen will cause the software to detect any
modules present on the network and display some basic network settings for that module as
shown in Figure 1.
Figure 1: IPCong home screen after detecting Z4 controller
If you would like to change any of the settings for the module, right-click the device you want to
congure and select ‘Conguration’. As can be seen, you can also open the internal website for
the module from this menu as well by clicking ‘Open Web-Interface’.

Figure 2: Selecting the Conguration menu option for the Z4 controller
The Conguration menu for the Z4 will allow for Ethernet conguration, 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.

10.2-9
If your computer has both an Ethernet network card and a wireless card, sometimes the
software will need to be explicitly told to use the Ethernet card in order to detect the module.
This can be done by clicking the ‘Settings’ button at the bottom of the home page. On the
screen that appears, check the box labeled ‘Broadcast from a specic network interface
controller’, then, in the drop down menu, select your Ethernet card. If you’re uncertain which
option that is, try each setting until connection is established.
Figure 4: IPCong settings window
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 congure 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
computer on the same network as the Z4 controller.
