When do I need OTAU?

deCONZ General Support
1

Hello,

Everything is working perfectly on my installation.
But I have a question about OTAU updates :

  • When do I need OTAU ?
  • Does updating devices improve their performance or add new features ?
  • If I ignore OTAU, could a device eventually stop working after adding a newer device or updating deCONZ ?

Honnestly, it’s personnal, but for me it’s “if it work, don’t touch it”

OTAU can improve performance or add new feature, but do you need them ?

Nope, if the device work before, it will work after without OTAU. But some OTAU need a code change on deconz side.
