How does the In&box work?

The In&box is the detection device that enables the airbag system to function and is exclusively compatible with airbag products equipped with In&motion technology.

 

Basics of the In&box

Turning on the In&box for the first time

  • If the In&box serial number starts with 54XXXXXX

Turn on the In&box using the side switch. If the side button is already ON, perform a quick double press on the central button.

Turning the In&box on and off

The In&box can be turned on and off by:

  • side ON/OFF latch (available on In&boxes with serial numbers starting with 54XXXXXX)
  • central button
  • ON/OFF function in the My In&box app
  • automatic standby

For more information, see the page How to turn the In&box on and off?

Inserting the In&box correctly

The In&box must be correctly inserted into its slot on the vest: properly positioned and pushed all the way in, with the latch fully engaged to hold it in place. Then check that the inflator LED is lit green.

Meaning of the LEDs (lighting code)

Here are the different LED colors you may see on the In&box:

 

Inflators LED 

Below are three situations illustrating an In&box inserted in the airbag product:

Solid green : In&box on = airbag functional

 

 

Rougefixe-FR-04032026.png

 

Solid red : In&box on = airbag non-functional

No light : In&box off = airbag non-functional

If the inflator LED indicator is first solid green for 3 seconds and then flashes green twice, inflator A is full and connected, and inflator B is empty and/or not connected.

If the inflator LED indicator first remains solid green for 3 seconds and then flashes green once, inflator B is full and connected, and inflator A is empty and/or not connected.

 

GPS LED

 

Solid green : GPS active (outdoors) = airbag functional

 

 

No light: GPS inactive = airbag functional

 

Inflator and GPS LEDs

 

The two upper LEDs flash red : In&box problem = airbag non-functional

 

See the article What to do if the In&box does not work?

 

  • - The two upper LEDs flash blue alternately: the In&box is trying to connect to your Wi-Fi access point
  • - The two upper LEDs flash blue simultaneously: synchronization and update procedure is in progress

Warning: make sure not to turn off the In&box using the side switch when the LEDs are blue!

- When the In&box is connected to a computer via USB for charging, the blue LEDs remain solidly lit. This is normal behavior.

 

 

Battery LED

Battery below 5% (red flashing). Charge the In&box!

 

 

Batterieinférieurà30%-FR-04032026.png

 

Battery below 30%. (about 5 hours of remaining use).

Battery charged (30 to 99%) or In&box off.

 
 
Batteriechargéeà100%-FR-04032026.png

 

Battery charged to 100% (In&box plugged in)

 

 

If you have a problem with the In&box or if the LEDs behave strangely, you can refer to the article on In&box malfunctions.
