## Requirements
The Shelly device needs to be connected to the same WiFi as nymea is in. New Shelly devices will open a WiFi named with
their name as SSID. For instance, a Shelly 1 would appear as "shelly1-XXXXXX". Connect to this WiFi and open the webpage
that will pop up. From there, it can be configured it to connect to the same network where the nymea system is located.

will pop up. For others the website needs to be accessed by a local ip e.g. (http://192.168.33.1) for the shelly plug/s. From there, it can be configured to connect to the same network where the nymea system is located.
No other options need to be set as they can be configured using nymea later on.

### Note for the Shelly Plug / Plug S
As default the shelly plug starts as wifi access point. To be able to integrate it into nymea, you need to change this behaviour. Open the shelly plugs configuration webpage (http://192.168.33.1). Got to "Internet & Security", select the option "Wifi Mode- Client", tick the box "Connect the Shelly device to an existing WiFi Network" and enter the credentials for that network and press the "SAVE" button. Now the network connection is closed and the shelly plug will try to connect to the specified network. Make sure security settings of your router allow new devices to connect to your wifi.
Some shelly plugs get sold with an old firmware version installed. Some functionality will be missing. Since some point in 2021, the shelly plug needs to connect to the shelly cloud once to pull firmware updates. So please enable cloud access in the settings under "Internet & Security" -> "Cloud" and wait a few minutes.
If no update does show up, you can force an OTA update by calling the url in your browser generated by (http://archive.shelly-tools.de/). Open that page, provide your devices local ip, select your device and the required version. Copy the generated OTA url in your browser and press return. The new firmware version should then show up in the shelly plugs webpage under "Settings" -> "Firmware update".
If not even this works, you can try a firmware update from a local address. The OTA link from above looks like `http://X.X.X.X/ota?url=http://archive.shelly-tools.de/version/v1.12/SHPLG-S.zip`. Copy the last part after `url=` into your browser and download the firmware file (.zip). Then either use an existing local server or open that folder in terminal and run `python3 -m http.server 9000` to open a local http server on that folder. Then grab the OTA link from above and replace the shelly plugs ip with the ip of your local server/your machine, copy that in your browser and press return. After the update has finished, press `ctrl + c` in the terminal to stop the http server.

When adding a Shelly device that is meant to be installed in walls and has connectors to switches, a new Gateway type device
representing the Shelly device itself will be added. The gateway device allow basic monitoring (such as the connected state)
and interaction (e.g. reboot the Shelly device). In addition to that, a power switch device will appear which will reflect
presses on the Shelly's SW input. You can use generic things to connect them to those switches in order to represent your actual
