Hubitat has firmware update options available for C-5, C-7 and C-8.
If you're on Hubitat C-7 or C-8, the community developer Bryan Copeland created a tool to update Z-Wave devices over the air straight from the hub. Click here to learn more and remember to say thanks to Bryan in the forum thread if you end up using his Firmware Updater.
If you're on Hubitat C7, you can also click here to learn more about their built-in OTA Update SmartApp to upgrade your devices straight from the hub.
If the above linked instructions are not working, or you are using a Hubitat C5 and updating a 700 series or greater Z-Wave device, please use these steps instead, provided to us by another Hubitat user:
-
HE C5 has a File Manager capability within the Hubitat Settings which is very easy to use to upload device firmware update files.
-
Download the firmware update .zip file from the Zooz update URL and extract the .gbl file and then save it locally on your PC.
-
For files uploaded into File Manager, this is the format one would use in the Z-wave Firmware Updater (the 2nd “binary” version provided by Bryan Copeland; https://github.com/djdizzyd/hubitat/blob/master/Drivers/Z-Wave-Firmware-Updater/zwaveBinaryUpdater.groovy):
-
http://YourHubIP:8080/local/FileNameThatYouUploadedIntoFileManager.
-
In addition to "8080", "local" is key here. Also, firmwareTarget field is "0". For example: http://192.168.1.7:8080/local/zen17-ver-1.20.gbl
-
Select “Update Firmware” to initiate the update. The update process now begins as evidenced by the firmwareUploadPercent progress counter increasing %..
- You may need to exclude and re-include your devices without security in order to help the firmware update go through. We recommend bringing the hub as close as possible too.

If you have tried the above options but are unable to perform the update of your devices, you can check out the instructions provided in the link below to update via Simplicity Studio's free PC Controller software.
Please let us know if you have any questions!
