As a part of our Gen5 range of products, Nano Switch without energy reading (ZW139) is firmware upgradable. Some gateways will support firmware upgrades over-the-air (OTA) and have Nano Switch (ZW139) firmware upgrades packaged as part of their platform. For those that don’t yet support such upgrades, Nano Switch without energy reading (ZW139) firmware can be upgraded using Z-Stick from Aeotec or other such Z-Wave USB Adapters such as SmartStick+ from Homeseer, or UZB1 from Z-Wave.me and Microsoft Windows.
Important.
