Introduction to Shelly ®
Shelly ® is a family of innovative devices, which allow remote control of electric appliances through mobile phone, PC or home automation system. Shelly ® uses WiFi to connect to the devices controlling it. They can be in the same WiFi network or they can use remote access (through the Internet). Shelly ® may work standalone, without being managed by a home automation controller, in the local WiFi network, as well as through a cloud service, from everywhere the User has Internet access.
Shelly ® has an integrated web server, through which the User may adjust, control and monitor the Device. Shelly ® has two WiFi modes – Access Point (AP) and Client Mode (CM). To operate in Client Mode, a WiFi router must be located within the range of the Device. Shelly ® Devices can communicate directly with other WiFi devices through HTTP protocol.
An API can be provided by the Manufacturer. Shelly ® devices may be available for monitor and control even if the User is outside the range of the local WiFi network, as long as the WiFi router is connected to the Internet. The Shelly Cloud function could be used, which is activated through the web server of the Device or through the settings in the Shelly Cloud mobile application.
The User can register and access the Shelly Cloud, using either Android or iOS mobile applications, or any internet browser and the web site: https://my.shelly.cloud/.

Installation Instructions

CAUTION! Danger of electrocution. Even when the device is turned off, it is possible to have voltage across its clamps. Never disconnect or reconnect the clamps before ensuring all local power is disconnected.
CAUTION! Do not connect the Device to appliances exceeding the given max load!
CAUTION! Connect the Device only in the way shown in this instructions.
Any other method could cause damage and/or injury.
CAUTION! Before beginning the installation please read the accompanying documentation carefully and completely. Failure to follow recommended procedures could lead to malfunction, danger to your life or violation of the law.
Allterco Robotics is not responsible for any loss or damage in case of incorrect installation or operation of this device.
CAUTION! Use the Device only with power grid and appliances which comply with all applicable regulations. Short circuit in the power grid or any appliance connected to the Device may damage the Device.
RECOMMENDATION: The Device may be connected to and may control electric circuits and appliances only if they comply with the respective standards and safety norms.
