  3. Select between:

  • Open Cover - choose this option if you want the cover to open fully at a specific time.

  • Stop Cover - choose this option if you want the cover to close fully at a specific time.

  • Move Cover to specific position. Here you can specify the following parameters:

    • Target position - drag the slider until you reach the level of percentage that you want the cover to be opened or closed. 0% means fully closed, and 100% means fully open.

    • Tilt position - drag the slider until you reach the desired level of opening or closing of the shutter blades.

    • Relative tilt position - drag the slider to define how much the tilt angle should change from the current position.
      Example: If the current tilt position is at 70% and you set the relative tilt position to -20%, it will move to 50% (because 70% − 20% = 50%).

  1. Tap Save to confirm the settings, and then Next to continue.

  2. Review the summary of the action that appears and tap Save to create the schedule.

Example:
Schedule: 6 pm on Tuesday, Local action: Move Cover to specific position, Target position: 50%, Relative tilt position: -30%
In this case, at 6 pm on Tuesday, the shutters will be opened at 50%, and the tilt angle should be changed to 20% (because 50% − 30% = 20%).

Settings

In this tab, you can view and change the main settings of the device, such as input type, control button mode, swap inputs, calibration, etc.

Eco Mode

Tap the toggle to enable Eco mode.

Input type

Set the input type as button or switch. Tap Save to confirm the change.

Idle Power Threshold

Enter a value between 0W and 50W to set a threshold below which the motor is considered stopped. Tap Save to confirm the change.

Idle Confirm Period

Set a delay between 0.25 ms and 2 ms before the direction changes. Tap Save to confirm the change.

Control Button Mode

As a cover controller, Shelly Shutter can work in 3 modes: Single, Dual, and Detached.

  • Single mode:

    • If the input is configured as a Button in the Device settings, each button press cycles through open, stop, close, stop, etc.

    • If the input is configured as a Switch, each switch toggle cycles through open, stop, close, stop, etc.

  • Dual mode:

    • Button input configuration:

      • Pressing a button when the cover is static: Moves the cover in the corresponding direction until the endpoint is reached.

      • Pressing the button for the same direction while the cover is moving: Stops the cover.

      • Pressing the button for the opposite direction while the cover is moving: Reverses the cover movement until the endpoint is reached.

    • Switch input configuration:

      • Moves the cover in the corresponding direction until the endpoint is reached.

      • Turning the switch off: Stops the cover movement.

      • Both switches turned on: The Device respects the last engaged switch. Turning off the last engaged switch stops the cover movement, even if the other switch is still on. To move the cover in the opposite direction, turn the other switch off and on again.

  • Detached mode:

    • In this mode, Shelly Shutter can only be controlled through its web interface and its app. Buttons or switches connected to the device will not control the motor rotation.

Tap Save to confirm any changes made.

Reverse Directions

Tap Enable to reverse the closing and opening directions. Use this option if the directions of the cover movement do not match the directions in the interface.

Swap inputs

Tap Enable to swap the inputs. If the device inputs have been wired wrong, you can swap them using this setting.

Calibration

Calibrate the device to enable position control of the cover. Tap the Start calibration button to initiate the process. Ensure there are no obstacles in the way during the calibration.

Action On Power On

Customize the state for your device on power on. On power on, your device will consider this its default state and immediately switch to it. Choose either Open, Closed, or Stopped.

Movement Time Limits

Set a time limit in seconds for how long the cover is allowed to move during opening and closing. A longer time limit will allow for a more gradual opening/closing process, whereas a lower value will result in quicker movement. The minimum is 0.1 second, while the maximum is 300 seconds. Tap Save to confirm the settings.

Blinds tilt control

In this sub-tab, you can define the main settings related to the blinds' tilt:

  1. Mark the Enable checkbox.

  2. Enter the Opening time (in seconds) for the slats. This is the time it takes for the slats of your blinds to move from fully closed (0%) to fully open (100%) position.

  3. Enter the Closing time (in seconds) for the slats. This is the time it takes for the slats of your blinds to move from fully open (100%) to fully closed (0%) position.

  4. Enter the value for Step (in percentage). This functionality defines the tilt adjustment step size as a percentage of the full slat range. Each command changes the slat position by this percentage.

  5. Tap the Retain tilt position checkbox if you want the position of the slats to be restored after a change in the cover (vertical) position.

  6. Tap the Precise Slat Position checkbox if you want better positioning accuracy when the cover is close to the fully closed position. This setting only takes effect if the current cover (vertical) position is less than one full slat rotation away from fully closed. In this case, any slat movement will first move the cover to the fully closed position before applying the slat tilt change. This results in more accurate slat alignment but increases operation time.

Device Name

You can change the current device name. If you use the Sync device name toggle to enable the synchronization, the name will also be changed in the device web interface. Tap Save to save the changes.

Firmware versions

Choose from the following options:

  • Enable auto update: If you tap this toggle, a schedule for auto update is added in the Schedule tab. Tap Edit Schedule if you wish to change it.

  • Update: By tapping this button, you can get the latest stable firmware version.

  • Check for update: By tapping this button, you can check if your firmware version is up-to-date.

Set your time zone and geolocation by one of the following methods:

  • Specify manually your Time zone, Latitude, and Longitude.

  • Tap the option Select from map and put the marker in the location. Tap Select to confirm it.

  • Tap the Auto detect location. As a result, the location data is auto-populated in the respective fields.

Tap Save to save any changes made.

Device Reboot

Tap the Reboot button to reboot your device.

Factory Reset

Reset your device to its factory settings by tapping the Factory Reset button. This will disconnect the device from your Wi-Fi network, and all associated users, including you, will be removed from the device. All previously set data will be deleted.

Here you can view the Device ID, Device Mac, Device IP, Device Type, etc. You can choose between the following options:

  • Transfer - tap here if you want to transfer your device to another of your accounts. You are able to use this option only if, at the time of transferring the device, you are also logged in to the other account.

  • Delete - tap here if you want to remove the device from your account
