**ID Lock Z-Wave Module Firmware Update Instruction Manual

**

Prerequisites

To upgrade your Z-Wave module you need the following:

  1. An ID Lock electronic door lock
  2. An ID Lock Z-Wave module
  3. ID Lock Z-Wave firmware file (hex-file)
  4. Silicon Labs Simplicity Studio and Z-Wave PC Controller (registration required to download developer tool)
  5. Z-Wave UZB controller (i.e. Aeontec Gen5 UZB)
  6. A computer running Windows 10 with at least 1 USB port

To update the Z-Wave module it must be excluded from your existing Z-Wave network. Please refer to the Z-Wave manual on idlock.no/kundesenter and your Z-Wave controller guide for details on how to exclude a door lock from your network.
Before inclusion we recommend you replace your batteries with 8 new LR06 batteries to ensure nothing goes wrong during the OTA (Over The Air) upgrade.
The Z-Wave firmware hex-file is available on idlock.no/kundesenter. Look for them in the Z-Wave section on the right side.

WARNING!
Updating the Z-Wave Module is at own risk and without any warranties. ID Lock is not responsible for any faults that may occur during the update process.
