Wi-Fi network with SSID like ShellyPro4PM-84CCA87E3EFC, please check if the device is connected according to the User and Safety Guide, Installation Instructions. If you still do not see an active Wi-Fi network with SSID like Shelly- Pro4PM-84CCA87E3EFC, or you want to add the device to.another Wi-Fi network, reset the device. If the device has been powered on, you have to restart it by powering it off and then again on. After that you have one minute to press 5 consecutive times the button/switch connected to the SW terminal. You should hear the relay trigger itself. After the trigger sound, Shelly Pro 4PM will return to AP mode. If not, please repeat or contact our customer support at:
