Safety instructions
ARNINGW
The WMS Socket may only be operated in
dry rooms.
ARNINGW
Power consumers that result in a danger
due to motion, heat, fluids, etc., when they
are switched on are not permitted to be
connected. This is especially important
since the WMS Socket can be automat-
ically switched by time or sensor com-
mands. Warema cannot be held liable for
personal injury or property damage result-
ing from this.
ARNINGW
If hazard-free operation cannot be
assumed, the device may not be commis-
sioned or must be decommissioned. This
assumption is justified if
The housing or plug-in connections show
signs of damage
The device is no longer working.
ARNINGW
Disconnect the power plug of the product
connected to the WMS Socket if you are
going to perform cleaning or maintenance
or change the lighting equipment. Danger
from electric shock!
AUTIONC
Never activate buttons on your transmitter
arbitrarily without visual contact to the con-
nected lamp. Children must not play with this
product – remote controls or transmitters
must not get into the hands of children!
ARNINGW
It is not permissible to connect devices in
series.
General information
Fig. 1 WMS Socket
The WMS socket enables the wireless remote control of
lamps with a conventional safety plug. The installation
does not require electrical setup work: The WMS Socket is
simply inserted in the existing plug-in connection.
The WMS Socket can receive switch commands from
WMS transmitters, e.g. a WMS Hand-held transmitter, WMS
Central transmitter or WMS Weather station. Feedback on
the received commands is provided via the transmitter.
The switching states for the comfort and scene control and
the parameters for the control functions are stored directly
in the socket and can be recalled or changed at any time.
Intended use
The WMS Socket is an electronic device that was devel-
oped to switch on and off the power operating voltage
of lamps with a safety plug. The device is only permitted
to be connected to permanently installed safety sockets
intended for this purpose.
The approval of the manufacturer must be obtained for
uses outside of the purposes listed in these instructions.

The range of radio controls is restricted by legal regu-
lations for radio systems and through structural factors.
Adequate radio reception must be ensured when planning
the project. This applies especially if the radio signal must
penetrate through walls and ceilings. The power socket
should not be installed in the immediate vicinity of metal
components (steel beams, steel-reinforced concrete, fire
door).
Strong local transmitter systems (e.g. WLAN) with trans-
mission frequencies identical to those of the control
system may interfere with reception.
Connection
Connect the WMS Socket to permanently installed
safety sockets in the interior only.
The WMS Socket must not be subjected to direct sun-
light.
When using multiple WMS Sockets, reception in-
terference may occur if the distance between the
individual sockets is less than 0.3m
Information on the electrical connection
An on-site overload current protection device (fuse) and a
disconnecting and isolating switch to switch off the entire
system must be provided.
Initial operation
You can find instruction videos on our
YouTube channel at:
http://www.youtube.com/user/SonnenLichtManager/videos
We recommend commissioning using the
WMS studio pro PC software!
Connect the WMS Socket to a safety socket.
Connect a power consumer only after learning it
into the WMS Socket.
Learn the transmitters and sensors into the WMS
Socket. (When the receiver is delivered, it does not
"know" any transmitters initially and first needs to learn
to which transmitters it should respond. We refer to
this process as "learning". The learning process is
described in the operating and installation instructions
of the WMS transmitters. The display on the front of the
WMS Socket "waves" during the learning procedure.
The device is ready to operate.
Now connect the power plug of the power consumer
into the WMS Socket.
The WAREMA Mobile System also enables a wide
range of special functions. Should you require
further information, your specialist dealer will be
pleased to give you the WMS application brochu-
re.
Operation
The WMS Socket always is always of the "light" product
type and is operated as follows, for example on a WMS
Hand-held transmitter:
Product type Functionality
Light Switch on the product
Change the product setting
(ON
→OFF, OFF→ON)
Switch off the product
Short: The product switches to the
stored comfort position
Long: The comfort position for the
product is stored
When the output of the WMS Socket is switched on, the
display lights up on the front.
How to operate the WMS Socket with other WMS transmit-
ters, such as the WMS Central transmitter, is described in
the operating and installation instructions of the respective
WMS transmitter.
Maintenance
There are no parts within the device that require mainte-
nance.
Cleaning
Clean the housing with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use deter-
gents, cleaning agents, solvents, abrasive substances or
steam cleaners!
Liability
Failure to comply with the product information in these
instructions and use of the unit in a manner that contra-
venes its intended use and purpose may result in the
manufacturer refusing to honour warranty claims for
product damage. In this case, liability for secondary harm
to persons or damage to property will also be excluded.
Follow the instructions in the operating manual of your sun
shading system. Liability is also excluded for damage to
the sun shading system resulting from operation under icy
conditions.
Disposal
After use, the device must be disposed of according to
legal regulations or turned in to your local recycling centre.

Product types
The product type determines the available functionality
when operating WMS receivers.
The WMS Socket can only be learned into the WMS Hand-
held transmitter as the "light" product type.
When learning the WMS Socket into WMS Central
transmitter, you can choose between the following product
types: switch light, switch load and switch socket. This
only has an effect on the display and on forming groups.
The operation is identical for all three variants.
Once the product type has been selected, it can
no longer be changed directly. To program a
WMS Socket for another product type, it must be
deleted out of the network entirely and learned in
again.
Sensors
Up to four sensor products (e.g. weather stations) can be
allocated to each WMS Socket.
The allocation is made using a WMS transmitter (hand-
held transmitter or central control unit). The allocation is
made for each channel and is described in the instructions
included with each transmitter.
The WMS Socket evaluates the measuring values of the
sensors and responds according to how it is parameter-
ised.
The WMS socket waves during allocation if is
pressed on the sensor (the indicator lamp at the
front of the WMS Socket flashes and a power con-
sumer connected to the socket is switched on and
off again).
Safety functions
When you switch on an automatic safety control (such as
wind or ice monitoring), the WMS Socket checks whether
new measuring values are being received by the corre-
sponding sensor at regular intervals.
If the socket does not receive measuring values for 24h, it
is assumed that the sensor has failed (heartbeat function).
The socket switches the connected product off. The prod-
uct can only be switched on after a valid value is received.
If four sensors have already been allocated to a
socket, a sensor must first be deleted from the
socket before a new sensor can be allocated. The
WMS transmitter outputs a fault message in this
case.
