Firmware updates

Post by Brieuc_Netatmo »

Update process: everything is automatic, no action on your part is required! We make sure that all products always have the latest features available.
The latest firmwares that have passed our internal validation processes are progressively pushed towards each eligible active product.
We gradually increase the percentage of updated products and carefully monitor each step. The deployment can thus be spread over several weeks.
The Relay is the first module to receive the new firmware from our servers. Then, it transmits their updates to all the modules paired to it (Thermostat and/or Valves). This process can take up to 72 hours depending on the number of modules and the quality of the radio link between the Relay and each of them.

Please find below the changelog of the Energy devices firmwares:

v237 (Relay) / v76 (Thermostat) / v97 (Valves) - February, 15th 2023 [Only for first versions of the Thermostat]
- Fixed a bug introduced by v236 that could cause two random situations:
  • a Manual Boost could be activated unexpectedly
  • when a Manual Boost was performed on the Thermostat, the setpoint had no duration limit (instead of returning to the schedule at the end of the default duration).

v236 (Relay) / v76 (Thermostat) / v97 (Valves) - January, 17th 2023
- Fixed a bug which in some cases changed the setpoint on the Thermostat without any action on its buttons nor in the app
- When the Thermostat is not installed in a Netatmo application (never installed or uninstalled), the setpoint applied to it no longer has a time limit
- Improved the battery level detection on Valves to prevent wrong low-battery alerts
- Improved temperature measures on Valves after a True Temperature adjustment
- Lot of improvements and optimizations


v222 (Relay) / v75 (Thermostat) / v85 (Valves) - January, 6th 2021
- Improved Bluetooth connectivity for the Relay Wi-Fi installation with Huawei smartphones running Android 10
- Fixed a bug which in some cases prevented the use of the advanced heating algorithm (PID) on the Thermostat despite its activation in the parameters
- Valves regulation optimization
- Various improvements


v216 (Relay) / v73 (Thermostat) / v83 (Valves) – September, 30th 2020

v210 (Relay) / v72 (Thermostat) / v81 (Valves) – September, 30th 2019
- [Valves only] Better estimation of the temperature during and after an Open Window detection.
- [Valves only] Numerous optimizations


v203 (Relay) / v71 (Thermostat) / v79 (Valves) - March, 21st 2019
- [Valves only] Introduction of the Open Window Detection feature: it can be activated/deactivated for the Home in the Netatmo Energy application's settings: Settings > Operating mode > Open Window Detection
- [Valves only] Improvements of the Relay Wi-Fi connection. In rare cases, it could have been lost temporarily when switching to Away/Frost-Guard mode
- [Valves only] Improvements of the Auto-Adapt (heating prediction) feature:
*In rare cases the heating prediction was not working properly when using "Away/FrostGuard until"
*In rare cases the heating prediction was not working properly in a room containing a Thermostat and Valves
- [Valves only] Improvements of the Relay stability for users with 20 Valves
- [Valves only] Improvements of the Valve opening for small heating demands


v197 (Relay) / v71 (Thermostat) / v73 (Valves) - November 20th, 2018
- [Valves only] The rare cases where the radiator was not warm enough have been corrected
- [Valves only] The rare cases where the radiator continued to heat beyond the requested setpoint have been corrected
- [Valves only] More intuitive 'True temperature" feature, to be able to choose the displayed temperature that better represents the room temperature
- [Valves only] The rare cases where Valves couldn't use Heating Prediction have been corrected
- [Valves only] Various improvements and bugfixes


v189 (Relay) / v69 (Thermostat) / v66 (Valves) - September 20, 2018
- [Valves only] Optimization of the update process for the modules connected to the Relay


v187 (Relay) / v69 (Thermostat) / v66 (Valves) - August 30, 2018
- [Valves only] Heating Prediction (Auto-Adapt) is now available for Valves!

- [Valves only] Improvement of the Valves calibration process
- [Valves only] Fixed a bug for very rare cases where the radiator continued to heat beyond the setpoint
- [Valves only] Improvement of the Valves battery level indicator
- [Valves only] Low battery level warning for Valves: an e-mail and a notification in the Energy application are sent
- [Valves only] Numerous optimizations and various improvements


v174-176 (Relay) / v65 (Thermostat) / v51 (Valves) - March 21, 2018
- Fixed a HomeKit bug: in some cases, only the Relay was visible in the Home application
- Various optimizations


v167-168 (Relay) / v65 (Thermostat) / v51 (Valves) - January 25, 2018
- New fix: the rare cases where the radiator continued to heat beyond the requested setpoint have been corrected.
- Fixed a HomeKit bug which randomly made the products unreachable in the Apple Home app after the latest firmware update.
- Fixed a bug which was stopping the boiler during short periods while it was not necessary.
- Fixed the rare issue of a random room displaying only the "!" logo (only when a Home has 10 rooms).


v160 (Relay) / v64 (Thermostat) / v49 (Valves) - December 06, 2017
- New Feature COMFORT Priority : 2 different operating modes are now available for a Home:
  • o COMFORT priority: Valves are allowed to turn the Boiler ON automatically in accordance with the requirements of the Home heating schedule.
    o ECO priority: Valves are not allowed to turn the boiler ON, they can only lower the temperature. This is the default behavior of an installation with classic thermostatic valves. To turn the Boiler ON, you can force a Manual Boost on a Valve.
- When a Manual Boost is applied on a Room with Valves only, a radiator symbol now appears on the Thermostat screen when the Room of the Thermostat does not need to be heated.
- Measured temperatures displayed by Valves of a same Room are now synchronized.
- Valves open & close faster after a boiler state change.
- Added a flame icon on Thermostat screen when boiler is ON.
- The heating power graphic curves in the Valve only Rooms is now more accurate: the average of the opening percentage during the latest 10min is displayed, instead of a picture of the state each 10 min.
- Fixed a bug which randomly prevented the Valve to close completely.
- Fixed an issue with ambient temperature estimation done by the Valves.
- Lot of minor bug fixes and optimizations.
