Abstract: Method of transmitting data between a server and an electronic unit for control of a home automation installation. The invention relates to a method of transmitting data between a server (S) and an electronic control unit (U) of a home automation installation (I) comprising the following steps: —a first step of reception (E5) by the electronic control unit (U) of a message requesting opening of connection (Mopen) originating from the server (S) according to a first communication protocol (P1); —a step of establishment (E6) of a connection (Cnx) to the server (S) on the initiative of the electronic control unit (U) according to a second connection protocol (P2); —a second step of reception (E8) by the electronic control unit (U) of a downgoing message (MRp) originating from the server (S) according to the second communication protocol (P2). The invention relates also to a server and an electronic control unit implementing the method.
