3.2 SMA Radio-Controlled Socket
The SMA radio-controlled socket supports load control in households with the
Sunny Home Manager. The SMA radio-controlled socket carries out the following tasks:
• Implementing control commands issued by the Sunny Home Manager
• Measuring the energy consumption of the connected electrical loads
• Improving the wireless connection between BLUETOOTH devices
Implementing Control Commands of the Sunny Home Manager
The Sunny Home Manager can switch the SMA radio-controlled socket on and off. As a result,
specific electrical devices can be switched on if there is a lot of PV power available.
The times at which the Sunny Home Manager switches the radio-controlled socket on or off depend
on the configuration of the SMA radio-controlled socket and the scheduling of the Sunny Home
Manager
Measuring the Energy Consumption of the Connected Loads
The SMA radio-controlled socket measures the energy consumption of the connected loads and
transmits the measured values via the Sunny Home Manager to Sunny Portal.
Improving the Wireless Connection between BLUETOOTH Devices
If the distance between BLUETOOTH devices is too great or obstructions interfere with the
BLUETOOTH connection, the SMA radio-controlled socket can be used as a repeater. This bridges
the dead zone.
