Setting up the eZMP

The eZMP is shipped with Microsoft Windows XP Embedded, Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0, and Kollmorgen's MPX 2.00 Motion Programming Interface. The eZMP is a standalone motion controller with an integrated industrial computer with VGA monitor, USB device, and Ethernet connectivity.

The eZMP features a simplified setup for quick assembly and operates as both a Universal Plug 'N Play (UPnP) device and as a standalone industrial PC.

Note: The directions below for Direct Connection via Crossover Cable, Network Connection via LAN, and Standalone Operation assume that the eZMP power supply is not connected, no compact flash card is inserted, and a working hosting computer (if using the network configurations) is available.

Direct Connection via Crossover Cable

To connect directly to the eZMP with a crossover Ethernet cable, simply plug the crossover cable into the Ethernet RJ-45 port of the eZMP and connect the cable to the Ethernet RJ-45 port of the host system. Continue to eZMP Startup for instructions on inserting the compact flash and connecting power to the eZMP.

Network Connection via LAN

To setup the eZMP on your local area network (LAN), connect a CAT5 Ethernet cable from the Ethernet RJ-45 port of the eZMP to the network hub. Then, connect another Ethernet cable from the host system to the network hub. Continue to eZMP Startup for instructions on inserting the compact flash and connecting power to the eZMP.

Standalone Operation

For standalone operation, connect the monitor to the VGA connector on the eZMP. Next, connect the USB keyboard and mouse to the USB device ports on the eZMP.

Continue to eZMP Startup for instructions on inserting the compact flash and connecting power to the eZMP.
