• Double Switch: Designed for use with two separate wall switches, enabling control over two distinct circuits or functions.
• 3-way Switch: Suitable for systems where a single light fixture is controlled by two or more switches.
• Momentary Switch: Compatible with momentary push-button switches for control.

Refer to the original document's diagrams for detailed terminal connections (L, N, I1, I2, O).

Specifications

Introduction to Shelly

Shelly® is a brand of innovative devices enabling remote control of electrical appliances via mobile phone, PC, or home automation systems. Shelly devices utilize WiFi for connectivity, allowing them to function standalone or integrate with cloud services. Each device features an embedded web server for configuration, control, and monitoring. They support both Access Point (AP) and Client (CM) WiFi modes. Remote access is facilitated through the internet, provided the WiFi router is connected.

Technical Information and Safety Precautions

• Control is available via WiFi from mobile phones, PCs, automation systems, or any device supporting HTTP and/or UDP protocols.
• Features microprocessor management.
• Can be controlled by an external button or switch.

⚠️ CAUTION! Danger of electrocution. Mounting the Device to the power grid must be performed with extreme caution.

⚠️ CAUTION! Prevent children from playing with the button/switch connected to the Device. Keep remote control devices (mobile phones, tablets, PCs) out of reach of children.

Installation Instructions

⚠️ CAUTION! Danger of electrocution. Installation of the Device should only be performed by a qualified person (electrician).

⚠️ CAUTION! Do not connect the Device to appliances that exceed the specified maximum load!

⚠️ CAUTION! Connect the Device strictly according to the provided instructions. Any deviation may result in damage and/or injury.

⚠️ CAUTION! Before commencing installation, thoroughly read all accompanying documentation. Failure to adhere to recommended procedures may lead to malfunction, personal danger, or legal violations. Allterco Robotics is not liable for any loss or damage resulting from incorrect installation or operation.

⚠️ CAUTION! Use the Device exclusively with power grids and appliances compliant with all applicable regulations. A short circuit in the power grid or connected appliances can damage the Device.

RECOMMENDATION: The Device should only be connected to and control electric circuits and appliances that meet all relevant standards and safety norms.

RECOMMENDATION: The Device may be connected to and control electric circuits and light sockets only if they comply with the respective standards and safety norms.

AWARENESS: If the Device is not connected to supported light types, dimming functionality might not be available. However, basic on/off control will still function.

Initial Inclusion and Voice Control Setup

Before installation, ensure the power grid is switched off (breakers down). Connect the Shelly device following the wiring scheme. You can opt to use the Shelly Cloud mobile application and service, or manage the device via its embedded Web interface.

Control your home with your voice

All Shelly devices are compatible with Amazon Echo and Google Home.

Consult our step-by-step guides:

• Amazon Alexa Compatibility
• Google Assistant Compatibility

Shelly Cloud Mobile Application

The Shelly Cloud app allows you to control and adjust all Shelly® Devices from anywhere globally, requiring only an internet connection and the app installed on your smartphone or tablet.

Download the Shelly Cloud app:

• ? App Store
• ▶️ Google Play

Registration

Upon first launch of the Shelly Cloud app, create an account to manage your Shelly® devices. For password recovery, use the 'Forgotten Password' option, which sends instructions to your registered email. Ensure accurate email entry during registration.

After registration, create rooms to organize your Shelly devices.

Device Inclusion Process

To add a new Shelly device, install it according to the Installation Instructions.

Step 1: After installation and power-on, Shelly creates its own WiFi Access Point (AP) with an SSID like 'shellydimmer-35FA58'. If this network isn't visible, reset the device: power cycle it and press the switch connected to I1/I2 five consecutive times within 60 seconds, or hold the reset button for 10 seconds until the LED flashes quickly.

Step 2: In the Shelly Cloud app, tap 'Add Device' (accessible via the top-right menu).

Step 3: Enter the SSID and password of your home WiFi network to which you want to connect the device.

For iOS Users: Minimize the app, navigate to Settings > WiFi, connect to the Shelly's WiFi network (e.g., 'shellydimmer-35FA58'), then reopen the Shelly Cloud app.

For Android Users: Your phone/tablet will automatically scan for and include Shelly Devices on your current WiFi network.

Step 4: Within approximately 30 seconds of discovery, a list of new devices will appear in the 'Discovered Devices' room.

Step 5: Navigate to 'Discovered Devices' and select the device you wish to add to your account.

Step 6: Assign a name to the device, choose a room for it, and optionally add an icon or picture for easier identification. Press 'Save Device'.

Step 7: To enable remote control and monitoring via the Shelly Cloud service, confirm by pressing 'YES' on the subsequent prompt.

Device Settings and Configuration

Once included, you can control and configure your Shelly device through the mobile app or its embedded web interface.

Timer Functionality

Automate power supply management:

• Auto OFF: Automatically shuts down the power supply after a predefined time (in seconds). Setting this to 0 disables automatic shutdown.
• Auto ON: Automatically turns the power supply on after a predefined time (in seconds) following a shutdown. Setting this to 0 disables automatic power-on.

Weekly Schedule

This feature requires an active internet connection. It allows the device to turn on/off automatically at set times, at sunrise/sunset, or at specific intervals before or after sunrise/sunset. Multiple schedules can be configured.

Internet and Security Settings

• WiFi Mode - Client: Allows the device to connect to an existing WiFi network.
• WiFi Client Backup: Configure a secondary WiFi network to connect to if the primary network becomes unavailable.
• WiFi Mode - Access Point: Enables the device to create its own WiFi Access Point.
• Cloud: Option to enable or disable connection to the Shelly Cloud service.
• Restrict Login: Secure the web interface by setting a username and password.

ATTENTION! Entering incorrect network settings, usernames, or passwords may prevent connection. A device reset will be required.

WARNING: If the device fails to create its own WiFi network (SSID like 'shellydimmer-35FA58'), verify wiring. If the network is not visible, reset the device by powering it off/on and pressing the switch connected to I1/I2 five consecutive times within 60 seconds, or by holding the reset button for 10 seconds.
