  2. In the van, open the dashboard and go to Connections, Modules.

An update cannot break anything: the SmartKnob and all modules boot safely. If an update is interrupted, simply start it again.

Detailed guide in the knowledge base

SmartKnob

SmartKnob

Current version: 0.9.2 from 2026-09-08 New

Download (SmartKnob 0.9.2, 2.0MB)

What is new

  • Motion wake is reliable again: a towel or curtain in the wind no longer wakes your SmartKnob, your hand does.
  • After waking you see the clock again, whatever page the SmartKnob fell asleep on. The menu no longer opens by itself and the screen no longer stays black.
  • Brightness: the slider at the top now really means full brightness, even in a shady spot.
  • Your modules stay connected while the SmartKnob runs its own hotspot: no more dropping in and out, no more lost button presses.
  • Temperature, Settings and Features now open a page instead of doing nothing.
  • Tank alert: every beep brings the message back on screen, so you can always silence it. Quiet until it changes now ends only after a real refill.
  • Tank statistics: sloshing while you drive no longer counts as usage, and refills are recognised.
  • Tank and climate charts: smooth curves instead of steps, and the scale matches the curve you see.
  • Presence automations: every matching rule for somebody arriving runs now, not just the first.
  • Timberline: new floor heating tab with its own target temperature.
  • Module updates continue where they were interrupted, so every module gets its turn.
Earlier versions (2)

0.9.1 from 2026-08-13

  • Light dimming: the value you set stays put — the slider no longer jumps back by 1 %, and your SmartKnob stops turning on its own
  • Presence automations keep their timing: an absence rule waits the minutes you set, and brief movement no longer switches devices on and off over and over
  • The automation editor is now one sentence you can tap to change, and the templates no longer start you off in a scene you never created
  • Tank alerts stop nagging while you drive; a press mutes them, holding stays quiet until the level really changes
  • Tank hints match the tank — fresh water is no longer asked to be drained. New profile: Aplast Ford waste water
  • Battery: a full battery says "fully charged" instead of a charging estimate, charging and running time are told apart reliably, and SmartKnob and dashboard show the same battery
  • The solar page on your SmartKnob shows the current power right away
  • Dashboard on the phone: the menu closes after you pick something, and the blurred patches in Chrome are gone
  • Updates: checks wait until you are not using your SmartKnob, so they can no longer make it stutter; progress shows live, large module files work, and you can turn automatic checks off
  • Clearer wording during setup, and a gentler automatic display brightness

0.9.0 from 2026-08-22

  • Your SmartKnob now finds software updates by itself and shows them right here in the dashboard
  • Updates install with a single tap — with progress display and automatic restart
  • Your connected Camper Jarvis modules now receive their updates through the dashboard too — no more manual file uploads
  • Timberline heating: new all-zones view controls every zone at once, plus manual fan control while heating
  • The inverter widget now also supports Ective CSI inverters
  • Water tank: calibration is now kept reliably when you change tank settings, and new tank shape profiles make the level reading more accurate
  • Security improvements under the hood
Volty

Volty

Current version: 0.5.6 from 2026-09-01

Download (Volty 0.5.6, 1.4MB)

What is new

  • The battery time estimate now tells charging and running time apart reliably — a full battery no longer claims it still needs hours to charge
  • Fixes a case where Volty could stay disconnected after a restart even though your SmartKnob was right there — it finds it again on its own now
Earlier versions (1)

0.5.5 from 2026-08-21

  • New: support for Ective CSI inverters/chargers — battery and mains readings show live on your SmartKnob. Monitoring first, control will follow with a later update
  • The CSI inverter works alongside an Ective battery on the same CAN connection
Fluidy

Fluidy

Current version: 0.3.4 from 2026-09-01

Download (Fluidy 0.3.4, 1.3MB)

What is new

  • Service release: under-the-hood improvements to how your Fluidy reconnects and re-pairs with the SmartKnob
Earlier versions (1)

0.3.3 from 2026-08-21

  • Updates for your Fluidy now arrive directly through the dashboard — this is the first one
  • Service release: improvements under the hood for diagnostics and support
Switchy

Switchy

Current version: 0.4.4 from 2026-09-01

Download (Switchy 0.4.4, 1.2MB)

What is new

  • New safety net for switched loads: if the connection to your SmartKnob drops, critical outputs move to a safe state on their own
  • Service improvements for reconnecting with your SmartKnob
Ampy

Ampy

Current version: 0.5.10 from 2026-09-09 New

Download (Ampy 0.5.10, 1.3MB)

What is new

  • Your outputs no longer switch off on their own: electrical interference on the current sensor could trip a channel even though the current was far below the limit. Ampy now double-checks an alarm before it switches anything off, so the real overcurrent protection stays exactly as fast as before.
  • After you reset a fuse the channel now stays on. Until now it could switch itself off again right away.

0.5.9 from 2026-09-01

  • Service release: under-the-hood improvements to how your Ampy reconnects and re-pairs with the SmartKnob

0.5.8 from 2026-08-19

  • Smarter overheat protection: loads are now switched off step by step — the one drawing the most power first, smaller ones keep running. Only a real emergency switches everything off at once
  • A faulty current sensor is now shown as a sensor error instead of falsely tripping the fuse
Lighty

Lighty

Current version: 0.4.5 from 2026-09-09 New

Download (Lighty 0.4.5, 1.5MB)

What is new

  • Lighty Extend: the wired push buttons switch the right light again. On the current Extend board they were read with the values of an older board, so a button could control the wrong channel or two buttons ended up on the same one.
Earlier versions (1)

0.4.4 from 2026-09-01

  • Wireless wall switch (Häfele Connect) can now be linked: tap to switch, hold to dim, double-tap for all lights
  • Warm white and cool white can be combined into one lamp — set the light colour steplessly from cosy-warm to bright-cool
  • More reliable wired button input on the latest hardware — fewer false switches
  • Service improvements for reconnecting with your SmartKnob
Heaty

Heaty

Current version: 0.4.6 from 2026-09-02 New

Download (Heaty 0.4.6, 1.3MB)

  • Webasto Air Top: first beta support with some limitations
