Post by structor »

Is it possible to upgrade the firmware of existing duwi's to their duwi.me counterparts? Or is the only the expensive old node in new node out procedure :D

The folks at zwave.me told me that it is possible to update the FW, but you have to send them in. I didn't want to send mine in, so I didn't ask how much it would cost. Email them and ask.

Will you replace the firmware yourself or do you sent them in?

I might be interested in this as well.
Not all my modules are built in yet.
So would be easy to do.

I have not the tools and the firmware for the upgrade.
Upgrade can only be done by ZWE.

Challenges.
Upgrade time 3-6 weeks
Shipment cost
Firmware cost.

Owner -> TANE -> ZWE ->TANE -Owner

Since the shipment cost are high I need first to collect the modules before shipment
This will increase the upgrade time.
This means I have to work wit replacement modules..

Shipment
->TANE 7 euro
->ZWE 10 euro
->TANE 10 euro
->Owner 7 euro

Total shipment cost per set are 34 euro.

Costs of the replacement modules ?

Firmware upgrade per modula +/- 10 euro (depend on number of modules)
All the cost will make the upgrade cost so high that I think the upgrade costs are not acceptable.

Will you pay +/-15 euro per module?

Good point! Do we have German members? ;-)

But if we bundle modules we can save on the shipping fee?

I'm a reseller of the ZWE
Investment in the upgrade hardware will cost lot of money and you will need the firmware..
ZWE works only with the resellers.
ZWE Town is Hohenstein-Ernstthal.

Sending to Ralph wil cost you also 10 euro..

If you have more than 15 modules that you like to upgrade you can contact me.

Hi All,
I have good News.
Upgrade is possibile..I need the minimum number of 20 modules..(More will reduce the shipment cost)

To make a good price..will you need replacement modules?

Upgrade will take about 2 weeks.
