The control device (1) allows sending and/or receiving media content, by a notice, a message, an access and/or a telephone call. The control device (1) includes a connection (101) with respect to the media viewing device (2) to start an emergency procedure, based on sending and/or receiving a default media content, compared to a Pre-ordered list (200) of end user devices. An emergency procedure uses the control device (1). ## Claims ### Claim 1 Control device of a media viewing device, to interact with a network of media contents and/or a communication network, said control device adapted to allow sending and/or receiving media content, by a notice, a message, an access and/or a telephone call; comprising a connection with respect to said media viewing device in order to start an emergency procedure, on basis of sending and/or receiving a default media content, with respect to a pre-ordered list of end-users devices. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) Control device, according to claim 1, wherein said connection belongs to electrical and/or wireless electromagnetic connections. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) Control device, according to claim 1, wherein said connection allows managing said pre-ordered list of end-user devices, by transferring commands to a remote control unit on said media viewing device. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) Control device, according to claim 1, further comprising a bidirectional sub-communication device, said bidirectional sub-communication device being activatable automatically, by a signal from said communication network and/or by a manual signal, by at least one button, to allow automatically starting an emergency procedure. ### Claim 5 (depends on 1) Control device, according to claim 1, wherein said bidirectional sub-communication device comprises at least a further of connection, to allow connection to said media viewing device, receiving and sending SMS messages, wi-fi and/or Bluetooth connection, activating microphones and speakers in speakerphone, both internal and external, with respect to the media viewing device, activating LEDs for night detection and flashing LEDs during an operational phase. ### Claim 6 (depends on 4) Emergency procedure by a control device, according to claim 4, comprising the following steps: 1.a) automatic sending of a default media content to a first device of said pre-ordered list, by manual activation of said bidirectional sub-communication device; 1.b) automatic sending of the default media content, to a subsequent device to the previous device, with respect to said pre-ordered list, through automatic activation of said bidirectional sub-communication device, as a result of failure to answer the previous device; 1.c1) interruption of a previous phase, as a result of a called device response; 1.c2) execution of the phase 1.b) until completion of the pre-ordered list; 1.d1) displaying a default media content by means of said media viewing device, in the event of response of said pre-ordered list device, of one of previous stages; 1.d2) automatic sending of an alert message to the default device of the pre-ordered list, or to a service center, in case of failure to respond to each device of said pre-ordered list, in the phase 1.c2); 1.e) automatic shut off of said bidirectional sub-communication device. ### Claim 7 (depends on 1) Emergency procedure by a control device, according to claim 1, comprising the following steps: 2.a) automatic receiving a default media content, coming from a device of said pre-ordered list, or coming from a default device of said pre-ordered list, or coming from a service center, by an automatic activation of said bidirectional sub-communication device; 2.b) automatically displaying the default media content, by said media viewing device; 2.c1) sending a response default media content addressed to the device of previous phases through manual deactivation of said bidirectional sub-communication device; 2.c2) automatic start of a forced termination procedure of said bidirectional sub-communication device, in a case of failure in manual deactivation in the previous phase.
