Before you start

Before you begin, make sure:

The Shelly Pro 3EM is physically installed and powered on

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Connect the meter to the network

Connect an Ethernet cable to the LAN port on the Shelly Pro 3EM
Verify the connection is established by checking the LAN LED on the device

For network infrastructure requirements and troubleshooting, see Infrastructure requirements for the gateway.

2. Discover the meter in the commissioning wizard

The meter is now ready for the commissioning wizard. The gateway will scan the network to find available devices, which may take a few minutes. Once complete, the Shelly Pro 3EM will appear on the results page.

FAQ

Why isn't the meter appearing in the commissioning wizard?

Check that the Ethernet cable is connected to the LAN port and that the LAN LED on the device is green. Restart the gateway and wait for the network scan to complete.

How do I update the firmware of the meter?

You can perform the update through the Shelly app or the device's web portal.

For detailed update instructions, refer to the official Shelly documentation.

Can I use WiFi instead of Ethernet?

The Shelly Pro 3EM supports WiFi, but a wired LAN connection is strongly recommended for reliability. WiFi connections may be less stable in environments with interference or weak signal, which can affect meter data quality.
