devolo Home Control
Home Control (also known as home automation) refers to the specific control of electrically operated indoor
household devices. The Home Control system by devolo uses the Z-Wave
TM
wireless standard.
For more information on the control and configuration of all devolo Home Control devices, as well
as application examples, please refer to the Home Control online help.

The Home Control Central Unit
The Home Control Central Unit is the heart of the devolo Home Control system. It is equipped with a user in-
terface, called the Home Control portal, which is used to coordinate all of your Home Control devices. Ac-
cess to the Home Control portal is very easy both from the my devolo app and at www.mydevolo.com in
a browser.
While the my devolo app lets you operate and control your Home Control devices easily and conveniently, ac-
cess to the Home Control portal in your browser at www.mydevolo.com is offering you the complete
range of Home Control functions and benefits. Among other tasks, you can carry out initial and ad-
ministrative actions such as initial registration of the Home Control Central Unit or teaching in and con-
figuring Home Control devices.
The Home Control Central Unit provides a button for dLAN encryption (home icon), a Home Control button
(tickmark), a network (LAN) and a USB connection. The USB connection is provided for future applications and
is not active at this time.

Basic guidelines for setting up a Home Control network
When planning your Home Control network, consider the optimal placement of all devices with regard to the
wireless range so as to best avoid weak signals and interference sources. Drawing up a sketch may help you
to determine the desired locations of all your devices.
Weak signals due to attenuation can result from furniture, plants and especially metal objects
which are located between the devices. Possible sources of interference include electrical devices
such as a microwave or computer. In such instances, keep your device at least around 50 cm away
from the source.

Install the Home Control devices as described in an order from those nearest to those
furthest from the Home Control Central Unit.
Connecting the Home Control Central Unit
The device is designed for indoor use only.
Taking the above factors into consideration, plug the Home Control Central Unit into a wall outlet that is
located centrally in your house or flat.
Connecting the Home Control Central Unit to the Internet router
a To integrate the Home Control Central Unit into your existing dLAN network using the Internet
router, first press the home or encryption button (for 1 second) on an existing dLAN adapter
(e.g. the one on the Internet router) on your network, and then – within 2 minutes – press the dLAN
encryption button with the home icon (for 1 second) on the Home Control Central Unit.
Or
b To connect the Home Control Central Unit to the LAN directly at your Internet router, plug the
included network cable into both devices.
As soon as you are connected to your dLAN or LAN network, the Home Control button (tickmark) on the
device illuminates white. If the Home Control button flashes red, there is no connection to the
Home Control Central Unit.
7
For the Home Control Central Unit to be recognised automatically in the
Home Control portal when first installed, both the Home Control Central Unit and
the device with which you are accessing it must be connected through the same LAN.
If instead you use separate Internet connections, you have to enter the serial number
of the Home Control Central Unit manually.
The serial number (e.g. S/N: 12312312312312) of the Home Control Central Unit is
located on the title page of the installation guide and on the label on the rear of the
unit's housing. If, in your case, the serial number has to be entered, it is done at the
time the Home Control Central Unit is added to the portal, as described under in-
struction
.
8

Register the Home Control Smart Metering Plug at the Home Control Central Unit
Multiple Home Control Smart Metering Plugs cannot be plugged into one another.
To ensure the best possible wireless range for the Home Control Smart Metering Plug, avoid po-
sitioning it behind objects that block the signal (attenuation) and avoid interference
sources. Weak signals due to attenuation can result from furniture, plants and especially metal
objects which are located between the devices. Possible sources of interference include electrical
devices such as a microwave or computer. In such instances, keep your device at least around 50
cm away from the source. The device is designed for indoor use only.
The Home Control Smart Metering Plug shuts off automatically if an overload > 3 kW
occurs. To restore function to the Home Control Smart Metering Plug, unplug it for
around 10 seconds, then plug it in again.
Select a wall outlet while taking the above factors into consideration, then lay the
Home Control Smart Metering Plug only near this outlet at first.
If this is the first Home Control device that you are registering, a list of possible devices is displayed auto-
matically when you register the Home Control Central Unit. Select

The Home Control Door/Window Contact
The Home Control Door/Window Contact consists of a sensor and a magnet. It sends information on the open
or closed state of a door or window. It also cooperates with other Home Control devices. For example, an open
window can automatically shut off the heat radiator in the same room. In addition, the integrated light and
temperature sensors can act as initiators for the light controls. Furthermore, the Home Control Central Unit is
equipped with an integrated LED and a release button.
For more detailed descriptions of the Home Control Door/Window Contact functions, refer to the
Home Control online help.

Installing the Home Control Door/Window Contact
When installing the Home Control Door/Window Contact (sensor and magnet), one component is mounted to
the moving part (window or door) and the other to the stationary part (frame). The magnet can be installed to
the right or left, horizontal or vertical to the sensor. Determine the best installation position for your case.
Install the Home Control Door/Window Contact on a flat and level surface so that the
black release button on the rear of the sensor is depressed when the device is in-
stalled.
Before permanently fastening the Home Control Door/Window Contact at the desired location, test var-
ious positions to ensure that the magnet triggers the sensor. The distance between the sensor and mag-
net must be < 2 cm.
If the LED flashes red when the window or door is opened or closed, the position of the sensor is opti-
mal.

If using the double-sided tape to fasten the Home Control Door/Window Contact, adhere the
wider tape strip to the middle (below the release button) on the rear of the sensor and attach the
sensor to the desired location, for example on the window or door.
Then adhere the narrow centre tape strip to the rear of the magnet and fasten this at a distance of <
2 cm to the sensor, e.g. to the window or door frame.
The notches on the magnet and of the sensor should line up with one another.
