3.2.2 Plugwise Radio-Controlled Socket
Plugwise radio-controlled sockets can be used for load control in the energy management system.
The SunnyHomeManager establishes a secure data connection with the Plugwise Stretch for the
visualization and control of the Plugwise radio-controlled sockets. The Plugwise Stretch enables the
exchange of control commands and measured values between the SunnyHomeManager and
Plugwise radio-controlled sockets.
The Plugwise radio-controlled sockets and the Plugwise Stretch are available through the Plugwise
sales channels. The firmware version of the Plugwise devices must meet the minimum requirements
(see Section1.1, page9). Via the Plugwise app, parallel to the energy management you can use
the numerous house-automation functions (refer to the manufacturer's documentation).
The function and behavior of the SMA radio-controlled socket and the Plugwise radio-controlled
socket are identical.
Controlling the Plugwise radio-controlled sockets via the Plugwise app
Plugwise radio-controlled sockets that are managed in the energy management system can not
be controlled via the Plugwise app. Only the power data of the Plugwise radio-controlled
sockets is displayed in the Plugwise app. If you would like to control the Plugwise radio-
controlled sockets via the Plugwise app, you must remove these devices from your
SunnyHomeManager system. The Plugwise radio-controlled sockets will then be displayed in
the Plugwise app without the locked symbol and can again be operated via the Plugwise app.
Device Overview
Unlike the SMA radio-controlled socket, the Plugwise radio-controlled socket does not have an LED
display or touch key for operation. It is therefore only possible to operate the Plugwise radio-
controlled socket via the SunnyHomeManager or the SunnyPortal app and to switch it on and off
manually.
