Changing the IP Address (BACnet-IP, MODBUS-TCP)
Connecting to a BMS Protocol Interface
Since RuiNet can only work with one BMS Interface at a time, it is necessary
to target the BMS Interface of interest. (Note that it is possible to run
multiple instances of RuiNet at the same time). If RuiNet is run without
specifying a target it will provide a list of the BMS Interfaces on the network.
Pick the required BMS Interface from the list.
Change IP Address
From the main menu, press “I” to enter the Edit IP Address Settings menu.

Press “1” to modify the IP address.
Type in a new IP address such as 192.168.0.35 and press <Enter>.
Wait for RuiNet’s response: “ Type Appropriate Key for Selection”.
If necessary, press“2” and change the netmask.
If necessary, press“3” and change the gateway address.
Restart the BMS Interface using the “!” command.
Common IP address ranges and netmasks:
Class A – IP (1.0.0.1 to 126.255.255.254), Netmask (255.0.0.0)
Class B – IP (128.0.0.1 to 191.255.255.254), Netmask (255.255.0.0)
Class C – IP (192.0.0.1 to 223.255.255.254), Netmask (255.255.255.0)
Do not use broadcast IP address ending on 255. This IP address is reserved
as a target IP address when a device wants to send a message to all other
devices on the network.
