What You'll Need

  • Shelly Plus 2PM
  • Two circuits to control (or roller shutter/blinds)
  • Smartphone with Shelly app
  • 2.4GHz Wi-Fi network
  • Wire connectors
  • Screwdriver and voltage tester

Step-by-Step Setup

  1. Turn off power: Switch off the circuit breaker for the circuits you'll be controlling.
  2. Choose mode: The Plus 2PM can operate in relay mode (2 independent switches) or cover mode (roller shutters/blinds).
  3. For relay mode, wire as follows:
    • L → Line (hot)
    • N → Neutral
    • O1 → Output 1 (to first load)
    • O2 → Output 2 (to second load)
    • SW1/SW2 → Physical switch inputs
  4. For cover mode: Connect motor wires to O1 and O2 for up/down control. Add limit switches if your motor doesn't have built-in limits.
  5. Restore power: Turn on the breaker. The device will power up and create a setup access point.
  6. Add to Shelly app: Tap "+" or allow auto-discovery. Connect the device to your Wi-Fi network.
  7. Select device mode: Choose "Switch" for relay mode or "Cover" for blinds/shutters.
  8. Calibrate covers (if applicable): Run the calibration routine to determine open and closed positions.
  9. Configure power monitoring: View real-time power usage for each channel.

Key Features

  • 2 channels (independent or paired for covers)
  • 10A per channel (18A total max)
  • Built-in power monitoring per channel
  • Roller shutter/blinds control mode
  • Wi-Fi and Bluetooth
  • Local processing and scripting
  • Position control for covers (0-100%)
  • Works with major smart home platforms

Troubleshooting

  • Cover calibration fails: Ensure motor operates correctly manually. Check that both output wires are connected. Remove any obstructions from the cover movement.
  • Both channels affecting same load: Verify wiring—each O terminal should go to a separate device or motor wire.
  • Power reading mismatch: Each channel monitors independently. Ensure the correct channel is associated with each load.
  • Cover position inaccurate: Re-run calibration. Ensure the cover reaches full open and full close during calibration.
  • Physical switches not working: Configure SW1 and SW2 correctly in settings. Set appropriate button type for your switches.
