Controlling Miele Devices Using the Miele@home Gateway

Miele@home is a system for the automatic control of Miele devices. The Sunny Home Manager can
control supported Miele devices directly by communicating with a Miele@home gateway and
thereby optimize self-consumption.
The Sunny Home Manager recognizes the Miele device automatically. All other settings must be
configured on the Miele devices.

Requirements:

☐ You must be an Installer or a PV system administrator (see Section 13.1 "Users and User

Rights", page 108).

☐ The firmware version of the Miele@home Gateway must be 4.0.x or higher.

Procedure:

1. Connect the load to the local network in which the Sunny Home Manager is located via the

Miele@home Gateway.

☑ The Sunny Home Manager detects the new load in the local network.
☑ The load is displayed on the page Device overview > Overview of new devices.

2. Use the configuration wizard to add the load to the Sunny Home Manager system as a system

extension.

☑ The new load is automatically displayed on the page Load overview and planning with

the available information and setting options.

3. Change the load name if necessary (see Section 9.3.6, page 68).

Example: Behavior of the Sunny Home Manager when switching devices
On the Miele devices, e.g. a washing machine, you set the time the wash cycle must be completed
by. The Sunny Home Manager then determines the most economical time period to operate the
washing machine and starts the machine automatically. This ensures that the washing machine is
started on time so that the laundry is done at the desired time.
