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 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 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. The mounting/ installation of the Device should be done by a qualified person (electrician).
