Intelligent control of light intensity in your home with Shelly Dimmer Gen3 Shelly Dimmer Gen3 is a single-channel, new generation intelligent light dimmer that enables remote control of light intensity in residential and commercial buildings. The device allows you to manage the brightness of LED light sources and classic bulbs using a smartphone, tablet or computer. This intelligent dimmer works with a Wi-Fi network and does not require the use of additional control units, which makes it a practical element of any home automation system. Shelly Dimmer Gen3 design and technology The Shelly Dimmer Gen3 module was designed for the modernization of existing electrical installations. Thanks to its small size, it fits into standard flush-mounted boxes. The device is equipped with an efficient Gen3 series processor, which ensures stable data processing. Importantly, the Shelly dimmer can work with or without a neutral wire, which makes installation easier in older buildings. For loads below 20 W in a two-wire installation, a dedicated Bypass turns out to be helpful. Application and intelligent lighting This intelligent light dimmer allows you to freely dim and brighten the lighting, adapting it to the user's current needs. The schedule function allows you to automatically start the lighting at specific hours or in accordance with sunrise and sunset. The device also enables night mode, which automatically limits the brightness of the light in the evening. The system supports Bluetooth and BLE connectivity, which facilitates pairing of devices and allows the module to act as a gateway for other accessories. Integration with smart home systems The device offers wide possibilities when it comes to integration with external platforms. Shelly Dimmer Gen3 supports popular ecosystems such as Google Home, Amazon Alexa and SmartThings. Thanks to the support of the MQTT and Home Assistant protocols, the intelligent dimmer can become part of an extensive local automation network. The user can create an advanced script and automation that will respond to signals from other devices, e.g. a motion sensor. Measurement and functionality remote control When connected to a neutral wire, the module allows for precise measurement of energy consumption by the connected receivers. This allows you to monitor costs and optimize their operation to use less electricity. The Shelly driver also offers the Webhooks function, which allows direct communication with other devices on the network. A wall button connected to the S1 or S2 input can perform various roles - from simple switching on to triggering complex scenes in the smart home system.
