Installing the TaHoma® box

To increase the radio range, it is recommended that the TaHoma® box is positioned vertically, in the centre of the home, in an unconfined location.(do not position inside a metal cabinet).

After an initialisation sequence which may take several minutes, the two indicator lights on the front of the TaHoma® box turn a steady green: the box has been updated and is ready for use.

Place the TaHoma® box at least 30 cm from the internet modem.

Do not disconnect the TaHoma® box during the initialisation sequence.
