Cat6 Ethernet cableIncluded in kit

Flowstate CL260 edge nodeIncluded in kit

Anybus gateway (for RS-485 systems only)

Customer provides:

1
Locate EZLogic controller
The EZLogic controller is mounted on the conveyor frame, typically near the drive end. Find the Ethernet module (if installed) or the RS-485 daisy chain.
2
Connect Ethernet
If an EtherNet/IP module is installed, connect Cat6 from the module to the Flowstate edge node. Otherwise, use the zone controller's RS-485 bus with an Ethernet gateway.
Older EZLogic systems are RS-485 only and need a protocol gateway (e.g., Anybus CompactCom).
3
Set IP address
Set the module's IP via DIP switches or web interface. Use 10.0.100.x range.

1
Enable zone reporting
Configure each EZLogic zone controller to report status (occupied/clear/jam/sleep) to the Ethernet module.
2
Set throughput counting
If photo-eye sensors are installed, configure them to increment a counter per zone for throughput tracking.

1
Scan zones
From the Flowstate diagnostics, run an EtherNet/IP scan. Each zone should appear with status data.
2
Dashboard check
Conveyor zones appear in Flowstate with status, jam alerts, and throughput counts.
