As a part of our Gen5 range of products, Recessed Door Sensor Gen5 is firmware upgradable. Some gateways will support firmware upgrades over-the-air (OTA) and have Recessed Door Sensor Gen5‘s firmware upgrades packaged as part of their platform. For those that don’t yet support such upgrades, Recessed Door Sensor Gen5‘s firmware can be upgraded using Z-Stick from Aeotec and Microsoft Windows.
Notes – Before updating, make sure you keep the sensor as close as possible to the controller that is performing the update to avoid any possible communication errors.
To upgrade your Recessed Door Sensor Gen5 using a Z-Stick or any other general Z-Wave USB Adapter:
- If your Recessed Door Sensor Gen5 is already part of a Z-Wave network, please remove it from that network. Your Recessed Door Sensor Gen5 manual touches on this and your Z-Wave gateway’s / hub’s user manual will provide more specific information. (skip to step 3 if it is part of a Z-Stick already)
- Plug the Z‐Stick controller to the USB port of your PC host.
