Update the firmware

Open System > Firmware to see the installed version and check for signed updates.

ItemMeaning
Status badgeCurrent update state, such as Up to date or Update available.
Installed versionFirmware currently running on the gateway.
Latest version checkedNewest version found at the last check.
Last successful updateIdentifier for the most recent completed update, or Not recorded.
  1. Prepare the gateway

    Connect stable external power and confirm that the gateway is online.

  2. Check for an update

    Select Check for updates. If the status remains Up to date, no action is required.

  3. Install the available version

    Select Install [version] and monitor Preparing, Downloading, Verifying, Restoring sensors, and Restarting. You can select Cancel update while an installation is active.

  4. Verify the version

    The gateway restarts and signs you out. Reconnect, sign in, and confirm Installed version.

An available update shows the installed version, latest version, last successful update, and installation action.
During installation, the Firmware page reports the active stage and progress and provides a cancellation action.

If a check or installation fails, the page shows the last error and a retry action. Correct the power or network problem, then retry. A cancelled update returns to the available or idle state without changing the installed version.

Use Diagnostics

Open System > Diagnostics. The page contains Hardware, Logs, and Crash reports. A Tasks tab also appears when task statistics are enabled in the firmware build.

Hardware

Select Refresh to request current availability from each configuration service.

StatusWhat to do
OKNo action is required.
Turned offEnable the channel on its Sensors page if you need it.
Not detectedCheck wiring, power, and connections, then refresh.
Could not startRestart the gateway, then refresh.
Configuration failedReview and save that component's settings, then refresh.
Stopped workingCheck the connected sensor and wiring, then refresh. This state does not always mean the module is damaged.
Status unavailableWait a few seconds, then refresh.
FaultRefresh, check wiring, and review or upload a crash report before contacting support.
Hardware diagnostics report the live availability and health of each gateway subsystem.

Tasks

When available, Tasks reports each firmware task's CPU percentage, runtime, priority, state, and minimum free stack, together with the measurement window and sample age. Select Refresh for a new snapshot. This tab is an engineering diagnostic and may be absent on production firmware that disables task statistics.

Task statistics expose CPU usage, runtime, priority, state, and minimum free stack when the feature is enabled.

Logs

The Logs tab shows recent messages from the active network transport and MQTT service. Use it to diagnose Wi-Fi, cellular, TLS, authentication, and broker errors.

Network and MQTT logs provide recent service messages for connection and broker troubleshooting.

Crash reports

The Crash reports tab records an unexpected restart or firmware failure. Review the reset reason, affected task, exception address, firmware fingerprint, report size, upload attempts, upload state, and previous reports. If a current report exists, you can upload it or clear it. Automatic cloud upload sends pending reports only while the gateway is online through Wi-Fi.

Crash reports preserve reset details, upload state, automatic-upload settings, and report history.
