Installation Steps 

1.

 

Read carefully 

End-User License Agreement for SPC SmartBox(EULA)

 in the Appendix. If you do not 

agree to the terms of the EULA, do not install or use the SPC SmartBox. 

2.

 

Unpack the SPC SmartBox. 

3.

 

Mount the Z-wave antenna. 

4.

 

Connect SPC SmartBox LAN port (black), with a regular network cable, to your network switch or 
router.  

5.

 

Power up the device by connecting the included power adapter to a wall socket and then to the SPC 
SmartBox device. The Power LED should become steady green.  

6.

 

Wait (~2 minutes) until the Status, Online and Z-Wave LEDs become steady green. 

7.

 

Login to your router and look for the IP address assigned to the SPC SmartBox. (As an alternative you 
can use a network scanning tool to discover the IP address. See Appendix for some examples) 

8.

 

Open a web browser and enter the IP address of the SPC SmartBox. 

9.

 

In the login window, enter Username (

smartbox

) and Password (default is 

Smartbox!

) and you will see 

the main menu and an empty scene list. 

10.

 

You can now start configuration of the device.
