C - ABOUT THE THOMSON CONNECTED HOME CONCEPT
The Thombox is a home automation box connected to your broadband modem (such as the
box provided by your internet service provider), which can be used like a real alarm control
unit at home or remotely, wherever you happen to be. It also lets you control convenience
devices (lighting, etc.), opening elements (electric shutters, garage doors, etc.) and energy
management systems (electrical consumption, heating) with just a few clicks on a computer,
touchscreen tablet or smartphone, wherever you are in the world, all thanks to the internet.
To enable these functions and to create scenarios (action sequences) that will make your daily
routine easier, you will need to register your Thombox (only when you first install it) and link it to
your compatible accessories using ARW technology.
The Thombox is entirely modular and there is no limit on the number of accessories it can
control.

D2 - SCREWING ON THE ANTENNA
The antenna supplied lets the Thombox communicate with your compatible accessories via
ARW technology. The antenna is essential to correct functioning of the Thombox. To ensure
optimal range, the antenna must be positioned vertically.
NB : Do not apply excessive force when screwing on the antenna or the antenna connector
may be damaged.
D3 - CONNECTIONS
Connect the Ethernet (RJ45) cable between your broadband box and your Thombox, then
connect to the power supply. Your Thombox will start up automatically. A steady green light will
come on to indicate that internet connection has been established and that you can activate
the Thombox (only to be done when you first install it).

A3 - RECYCLING
It is forbidden to dispose of used batteries with your household waste. Batteries
and accumulators containing harmful substances are marked with the symbols
shown opposite, which refer to this ban on disposal with household waste. The
corresponding heavy metal names are as follows: Cd= cadmium, Hg= mercury,
Pb= lead. You can hand in these batteries and accumulators to local waste
collection centres (recycling centres) who are obliged to accept them. Do not leave batteries/
button cells/accumulators within the reach of children. Store them out of their sight and reach.
They may be swallowed by children or pets. Can cause death!
If, in spite of your precautions, a battery is swallowed, contact a doctor immediately or go
tothenearesthospital.Nevershort-circuitbatteries.Donotthrowthem intoreorrecharge
them/. Risk of explosion!
This logo indicates that out-of-service devices must not be thrown out with
household waste. The hazardous substances that they are likely to contain may be
harmful to health and the environment. Have your retailer take the devices back or
use your local waste sorting services .

F1 - ADDING ACCESSORIES
IMPORTANT :
Beforepermanently mountingyouraccessories, werecommendyoucarryouta rangetest;
In order to do so, place your sensors as close as possible to their intended position before
actually mounting them, and test your accessory.
For example, for an opening sensor, simulate opening the door or window and check that the
accessory's status and the interface status match.
Every accessory in your installation must be paired with your Thombox for it to operate. Click
on "GENERAL" on your Thombox interface, then on "Ajouter des modules" (Add modules) :
YourThomboxwillthengointolearningmodeandstartsacountdownof60seconds,
during which you should activate the accessory.
Once the accessory has been recognised by the Thombox, "Module ajouté" (Module added)
will appear on the screen and you will be promoted to name the accessory.
Go through the same procedure for each accessory you want to pair with the Thombox.
G - PRESENTATION OF ACCESSORIES AND HOW TO PAIR
WITH THE THOMBOX
G1 - INTERIOR MOTION SENSOR WITH PET-IMMUNE FUNCTION
This sensor detects moving human presence in the room where it is installed, and sends the
information to the Thombox which will raise the alert.
Choice of position
For effective protection, follow these rules when deciding where to place your interior motion
sensor :
• Donotplacethesensoroppositeawindoworasourceofreectedlight.

• Placeyoursensorperpendiculartotheusualdirectionofmovement(notalignedwithit)
A- The sensor is opposite a mirror (reflecting sunlight) and a fireplace. The line of movement
does not cross the beams laterally.
B-The beams cross and one sensor is opposite a window.
C-The door and the window are protected and the sensor is fitted so that the line of movement
crosses the beams laterally.
C-The sensor is fitted so that the line of movement crosses the beams laterally.
Operation
The sensor cell on the front is sensitive to variations in infrared radiation : a person moving past
the sensor triggers detection.

G5 - USE OF THE ALARM WIDGET
The security accessories paired with your Thombox must be declared in a partition so that the
Thombox knows how to react when they are triggered.
To access your Security widget, press the number keys on the screen keyboard to enter your
PINnumber.EnterthePIN"0000"(bydefault)intotheSecuritywidget,thenclick"OK".
To create a partition (surveillance zone) that will let you declare, arm or disarm your sensors and
siren, click on +to the top right of the widget.
For more details on the various functions available, click on the icons .
Once the partition has been created, it will appear in the Security widget :
To assign a sensor, click on +"créer une zone" (Create a zone) in the partition frame.
Once your sensors have been declared, you can arm and disarm the security system by
clicking on the corresponding buttons. If your sensors are triggered, the alert will be raised in
accordance with the conditions you have set.
Thombox pairing method
During the countdown, connect the battery to the siren then hold down the "Learn" button for
a few seconds.
G4 - ALARM REMOTE CONTROL
The remote control can be used to switch your Thombox alarm system on and off.

G6 - RULE CREATION
Your Thombox comes with a powerful rule creation system, which you can use to trigger
actions according to the conditions of your choice. Click on the "Créateur de règles" (Rule
creation) button in the top ribbon :
Each rule is broken down like the pieces of a puzzle.
For example, when a door is opened, you want a light to come on.
You will need to :
- slidethe"Quand"(When)blocktothecentreofthescreen.
- movea"Capteur"(Sensor)blockinside("capteur"(sensor)categoryintheleft-handcolumn)

- select "open" in the list that is displayed (the rule should be applied when the door is
opened)
- slidethe"Action"block to slotitintothe "Quand" (When)block("action"categoryin the

(In the event of error, click on the "broom" icon to clear the screen and the parts moved)
Then click on "Sauvegarder" (Save) to save your rule.
Finally, click on the "Synchroniser les règles" (Synchronise rules) button to upload the rule to
the Thombox.
Waitduringsynchronisationofyourrule,thenopenyourdoor-thelightwillcomeon!
There are plenty of other examples and explanations on www.thomsonbox.eu, designed to
help you get a better grasp of the rule creation function of your Thombox and all it can do
("Scénarios types" (Standard scenarios) link at the bottom left of the home screen).
There are also a number of explanatory videos available. For example, enter the key word
