Maya Tutorial - Mental Ray Displacement Maps (Incomplete)

I had some significant problems when loading the openEXR files into the displacement node. It would not load it correctly no matter what I did or how ever many times I restarted the tutorial. As such I was not able to complete the tutorial in my own scene.
