Product Description

Shelly Plus RGBW PM (the Device) is a Wi-Fi/Bluetooth-operated RGBW controller. It can be connected like any LED controller and allows the lighting to be controlled directly from a mobile device or tablet. It supports 3 profiles – “Lights”, “RGB”, and “RGBW”. Power measurement functionality allows real-time tracking of the voltage, current, and power consumption. The Device has an embedded web interface used to monitor, control, and adjust the Device. The web interface is accessible at http://192.168.33.1 when connected directly to the Device access point or at its IP address when you and the Device are connected to the same network. The Device can access and interact with other smart devices or automation systems if they are in the same network infrastructure. Shelly Europe Ltd. provides APIs for the devices, their integration, and cloud control. For more information, visit https://shelly- api-docs.shelly.cloud.

The Device comes with factory-installed firmware. To keep it updated and secure, Shelly Europe Ltd. provides the latest firmware updates free of charge. Access the updates through either the embedded web interface or the Shelly Smart Control mobile application. Installation of firmware updates is the user’s responsibility. Shelly Europe Ltd. shall not be liable for any lack of conformity of the Device caused by the failure of the user to install the available updates in a timely manner.

Installation instructions

To connect the Device, we recommend using solid single-core wires or stranded wires with ferrules. The wires should have insulation with increased heat resistance, not less than PVC T105°C (221°F).
When connecting wires to the Device terminals, consider the specified conductor cross-section and stripped length. Do not connect multiple wires to a single terminal.
Do not use buttons or switches with built-in LED or neon glow lamps. Connect the + wire to the + terminal and the wire to the terminal of the Device.+

Wiring diagram

Lights mode:
In Lights mode, the Device can control up to 4 different LED strips (groups of lights) independently. Connect the positive wire of the LED strips to the + wire and the negative to the corresponding Device outputs O1, O2, O3, and O4 as shown in Fig. 1 a). Connect either a button (single-button dimming only possible) as shown in Fig 1. a), a switch as shown in Fig. 1 b), or a potentiometer as shown in Fig. 1 c) to each input I1, I2, I3, and I4 which controls the corresponding output O1, O2, O3, and O4.

RGBW mode
In RGBW mode, the Device can control a single RGBW LED strip. Connect the positive wire of the LED strip to the + wire and the R, G, B, and W ones to the corresponding Device outputs R, G, B, and shown in Fig. 2 a). You can use either single or dual-button dimming to control the brightness of the RGB and the white lights independently as shown in Fig. 2 a). For single-button dimming, connect a button to I1 for the RGB light and a button to I3 for the white light. For dual-button dimming, connect 2 buttons to I1 and I2 for the RGB light, and 2 buttons to I3 and I4 for the white light. Pressing the buttons connected to I1 and I3 increases the brightness, and of the ones connected to I2 and I4 decrease it. If you want to just turn on/off the LED strip, connect a switch to I1 as shown in Fig 2. b). The RGB and the white lights are turned on/ off by the switch simultaneously. If you want to use a potentiometer to smoothly control the brightness of the LED strip, connect one to I1 as shown in Fig 2. c). The RGB and the white lights are dimmed by the potentiometer simultaneously.

RGB mode
In RGB mode, the Device can control a single RGB LED strip. Connect the positive wire of the LED strip to the + wire and the R, G, and B ones to the corresponding Device outputs R, G, and B as shown in Fig. 3 a). You can use either single or dual-button dimming for brightness control as shown in Fig. 3 a). For single-button dimming, connect a button to I1 and for dual-button dimming, connect another one to I2. In dual-button dimming pressing the button connected to I1 increases the brightness, and of the one connected to I2 decreases it. If you want to just turn on/off the LED strip, connect a switch to I1 as shown in Fig 3. b). If you want to use a potentiometer to smoothly control the brightness of the LED strip, connect one to I1 as shown in Fig 3. c).

You can adjust the brightness and the color independently in you mobile application or the Device web interface.
