I’ve recently had the pleasure of upgrading my Z-Wave Plus devices, specifically the HomeSeer HS-WD100+ Wall Dimmer to Firmware v5.19. It was a bit confusing at first, but I managed to figure it out with some research and community help. Here’s how I did it:
-
Understanding the Process: I knew I needed to push the firmware directly to the device through Vera Plus, but the interface wasn’t very clear. After some digging, I found that Vera Plus allows firmware updates via its device management section.
-
Finding the Right Firmware: I downloaded the latest firmware from HomeSeer’s official website. It’s crucial to ensure you’re using the correct firmware version to avoid any issues.
-
Upgrading the Device: Once I had the firmware file, I navigated to Vera Plus’s device settings, found the HomeSeer dimmer, and uploaded the firmware. The process was straightforward once I knew where to look.
-
Post-Upgrade Check: After the update, I tested the dimmer to ensure it was working as expected. Everything seemed fine, and the new firmware added some nice features I was looking forward to.
