IMPORTANT - Please make sure that the model number (located on the back) of the NanoMote Quad is the ZWA003 before downloading and performing the update process.


As a part of our Gen5 range of products, NanoMote Quad is firmware upgradable. Some gateways will support firmware upgrades over-the-air (OTA) and have NanoMote Quads firmware upgrades packaged as part of their platform. For those that don't yet support such upgrades, NanoMote Quad's firmware can be upgraded using Z-Stick from Aeotec (or any other Z-Wave compliant Z-Wave USB Adapters from any manufacturer) with Microsoft Windows XP/7/8/10.

To upgrade your NanoMote Quad using a Z-Stick or any other general Z-Wave USB Adapter:

  2. Plug the Z‐Stick controller to the USB port of your PC host.
  3. Download the firmware that corresponds to the version of your NanoMote Quad.
