Firmware Updates
Your panel can update its firmware over the air — no USB cable or computer needed after the initial install. When a new version is available, the panel downloads and installs it automatically (if enabled) or waits for you to trigger the update manually.
Update settings
These are configured from the Settings tab in the Web UI, under the Firmware section. They also appear as controls in Home Assistant.
- Version — the firmware version currently running on your panel (read-only).
- Auto Update — turn this on to let the panel install new versions automatically. When off, you'll need to trigger updates manually.
- Update Frequency — how often the panel checks for updates: Hourly, Daily, Weekly, or Monthly.
- Check for Update — press this button to check for a new version right now, regardless of the automatic schedule.
What happens during an update
- The panel checks the update server for a newer version.
- If one is available and Auto Update is on, it downloads and installs the update.
- The panel restarts with the new firmware. Your settings (buttons, colours, temperatures, etc.) are preserved.
The update usually takes a minute or two. The display may show a loading screen briefly during the restart.
Checking updates from Home Assistant
You can also manage updates from Home Assistant. The Auto Update toggle, Update Frequency selector, and Check for Update button all appear as entities that you can control from the Home Assistant dashboard or use in automations.
The standard Home Assistant Update entity may also appear, depending on your Home Assistant version.
