Shelly 3EM Cloud Mobile App Installation Guide

Shelly 3EM Cloud Mobile App Installation Guide

INITIAL INCLUSION

Before installing/mounting the Device ensure that the grid is powered off (turned down breakers). Connect Shelly 3EM to the power grid and install it in the breakers box following the scheme that suites the desired purpose.
You may choose if you want to use Shelly with the Shelly Cloud mobile application and Shelly Cloud service. You can also famil-iarize yourself with the instructions for Management and Control through the embedded Web interface.

CONTROL YOUR HOME WITH YOUR VOICE

All Shelly devices are compatible with Amazon Echo and Google Home. Please see our step-by-step guide on: https://shelly.cloud/compatibility/

THE MOBILE APPLICATION – SHELLY CLOUD
Shelly Cloud gives you the opportunity to control and adjust all Shelly® Devices from anywhere in the world. You only need an internet connection and our mobile application, installed on your smartphone or tablet. To install the application please visit Google Play or App Store and install the Shelly Cloud app.

Registration
The first time you load the Shelly Cloud mobile app, you have to create an account that can manage all your Shelly® devices.

Forgotten Password
In case you forget or lose your password, just enter the e-mail address you have used in your registration. You will then receive instructions to change your password.

WARNING! Be careful when you type your e-mail address during the registration, as it will be used in case you forget your password. After registering, create your first room (or rooms), where you are going to add and use your Shelly devices. Shelly Cloud gives you opportunity to create scenes for au-tomatic turning on or off of the Devices at predefined hours or based on other parameters like temperature, humidity, light etc. (with available sensor in Shelly Cloud). Shelly Cloud allows easy control and monitoring using a mobile phone, tablet or PC.

Device Inclusion

To add a new Shelly device, connect it to the power grid following the Installation Instructions included with the Device.

Step 1 – After the installation of Shelly in the breakers box and the power is turned on Shelly will create its own WiFi Access Point (AP).

WARNING! In case the Device has not created its own WiFi network with SSID like shellyem3-35FA58 check if you have connected Shelly correctly by the schemes described above. If you do not see an active WiFi network with SSID like shellyem3-35FA58, reset the Device. In order to reset the device, you will need physical access to it. On the front of the device, you will see a button. Press and hold it for 10 seconds. Shelly should return to AP Mode. If not, please repeat or contact our customer support at: support@shelly.cloud

Step 2 – Choose “Add Device”. In order to add more Devices later, use the app menu at the top right corner of the main screen and click “Add Device”. Type the name (SSID) and password for the WiFi network, to which you want to add the Device.

Step 3 – WiFi network inclusion
If using iOS press the home button of your iPhone/iPad/iPod. Open Settings > WiFi and connect to the WiFi network created by Shelly, e.g. shellyem3-35FA58. If using Android your phone/tablet will automatically scan and include all new Shelly Devices in the WiFi network that you are connected to.

Upon successful Device Inclusion to the WiFi network you will see this pop-up:

Step 4 – Approximately 30 seconds after discovery of any new Devices оn the local WiFi network, а list will be displayed by de-fault in the “Discovered Devices” room.

Step 5 – Enter Discovered Devices and choose the Device you want to include in your account.

Step 6 – Enter a name for the Device (in the Device Name field). Choose a Room, in which the Device has to be positioned. You can choose an icon or add a picture to make it easier to recog-nize. Press “Save Device”.

Step 7 – To enable connection to the Shelly Cloud service for remote control and monitoring, press “YES” on the following pop-up.

Shelly devises Settings

After your Shelly device is included in the app, you can control it, change its settings and automate the way it works. To switch the relay of the Device on and off, use the respective Power button.

Description of Shelly 3EM values:

1. Power Consumption – This is the power that is actually consumed or utilized in an AC Circuit. It is also called True power, Active power or Real power. It is measured in kilowatt (kW) or megawatt (MW). It is the actual outcome of the electrical system which runs the electric circuits or loads. This is the energy which you are paying. It is shown separately with individual colors for each phase, in the history graph. If you have solar panel and sell energy, you will see this power with “negative” value. It is shown in green color in the history graph.
2.   Reactive power – This is the power that flows back and forth, it moves in both the direction in the circuit or react upon itself. The Reactive power is measured in Volt-Ampere reactive (VAR), Kilo Volt-Ampere reactive (VAR) or Mega Volt-Ampere reactive (MVAR). You are not being charged for this energy.
3.   Power Factor – The power factor of an AC electrical circuit is defined as the ratio of the real power absorbed by the load to the apparent power flowing in the circuit, and is a dimensionless number in the closed interval of −1 to
   • A power factor of less than 1 indicates the voltage and current are not in phase, reducing the instantaneous product of the two. In a perfect situation, the Power Factor is close to 1.
4. Voltage – Voltage, also called electromotive force, is a quantitative expression of the potential difference in charge between two points in an electrical field.
