Abstract: The present invention concerns a method for controlling a home-automation facility comprising at least one central control unit (U1, U2) belonging to a home-automation facility; the method being executed by a user terminal (T) and comprising the following steps: selecting (ECTLT1) a first local connection mode (CM1) or a second wide area network connection mode; establishing (ECTLT2) a connection between the user terminal and at least one target unit (U1, U2, Sv), said at least one target unit (U1, U2, Sv) being a central control unit (U1, U2) in the case in which the first local connection mode (CM1) has been selected, and a management unit (Sv) in the case in which the second wide area network connection mode has been selected; sending (ECTLT3) a discovery message (MCTLD1, MCTLD2, MCTLD′) linked with a facility identifier (StID) to at least one target unit (U1, U2,Sv); receiving (ECTLT5, ECTLT7) at least one topology description message originating from the target unit (U1, U2, Sv) comprising a description of a group of devices (DGrSt) attached to the facility identifier (StID).

Abstract: The invention relates to a home-automation system and a method for constituting the topology of a home-automation system comprising a plurality of central control units, the method being executed by a user terminal (T) connected to the at least one home-automation system and comprising the following steps: receiving (ECTT3, ECTT4) from at least one central control unit (U1, U2) among the plurality of central control units (U1, U2) at least one message (MDL1, MDL2) comprising a list (DL1, DL2) comprising at least one home-automation device with which said central control unit is capable of communicating; selecting (ECTT6) at least one combination of at least one device in connection with one central control unit among the plurality of control units (U1, U2) for which the communicated device list (DL) comprises the selected device, with a view to connecting at least one device to said central control unit; and sending (ECTT7) a connection message (MR) to the at least one central control unit (U) selected in step ii so as to trigger a connection of the at least one device (D) to said central control unit (U).

Abstract: The present invention concerns a method for recording a central control unit (U) belonging to a home-automation facility (17); the method being executed by a user terminal (T) and comprising the following steps: establishing (ELRT2) a connection between the user terminal (T) and at least one central control unit (U); creating (ELRT3) a facility identifier (StID); sending (ELRT4) a discovery message (MD); receiving (ELRT5, ELRT8) at least one signalling message (MLRSU) transmitted by at least one central control unit (U, U1, U2) for the facility (17) linked with a unique identifier (UID) of said central control unit (U, U1, U2), recording (ELRT6, ELRT9) an attachment of the at least one identifier (UID) of the at least one central control unit (U, U1, U2) to the identifier of the facility (StID).
