SMA sunny home manager - Controlling Non-Program-Controlled Loads

8. Start the washing machine.
9. Immediately after the washing machine starts, set the radio-controlled socket to the operating
mode Automatic (see Section9.2.6.1, page77).
☑ The radio-controlled socket switches to Off mode and will be switched on by the
SunnyHomeManager within the set time period in accordance with the available energy
amount and type.
☑ After the program ends, the radio-controlled socket switches to On. The washing machine can
be filled again and either started manually or automatically via the SunnyHomeManager.
✖ The SunnyHomeManager does not switch the radio-controlled socket on within the
configured time period?
You may have set the radio-controlled socket to Automatic after the beginning of the time
period, e.g. the time period starts at 1:00p.m. and you have set the radio-controlled socket to
Automatic after 1:00p.m. If the washing cycle cannot be completed within the time period
due to the maximum program runtime, the SunnyHomeManager will not switch the radio-
controlled socket on until the next time period.
• To set the connected load to start immediately, set the operating mode of the radio-
controlled socket to On (see Section9.2.6.1, page77).
9.4.2 Controlling Non-Program-Controlled Loads
This section describes how to control non-program-controlled loads via radio-controlled sockets,
using a pond pump as an example load.
Procedure:
1. Connect the pond pump to the radio-controlled socket.
2. Configure the pond pump as a load (see Section9.3, page79).
3. Configure the radio-controlled socket to which the pond pump is connected (see Section9.2,
page75) and assign to the load "pond pump" (see Section9.2.4, page76).
4. Set the operating mode of the radio-controlled socket to Automatic (see Section9.2.6.1,
page77).
☑ The SunnyHomeManager switches the radio-controlled socket on within the set time
period.
✖ The SunnyHomeManager does not switch the radio-controlled socket on?
You may have set the radio-controlled socket to Automatic after the beginning of the
time period, e.g. the time period starts at 1:00p.m. and you have set the radio-controlled
socket to Automatic after 1:00p.m. If the defined operation time for the device is not
available for the load within the time period, the SunnyHomeManager does not switch
the radio-controlled socket on until the next time period.
• To set the connected load to start immediately, set the operating mode of the radio-
controlled socket to On (see Section9.2.6.1, page77) and switch on the load.
The load is now no longer controlled by the SunnyHomeManager.
