UZB-7 Z-Wave 700 Stick Bridge Module


The UZB-7, Z-Wave 700 Stick Bridge Module is a simple reference design featuring the EFR32ZG14 Z-Wave SoC, as a gateway and controller for smart home applications.

The UZB-7 exposes the well-documented and proven Z-Wave Serial API via USB. It allows the host processor to control up to 232 Z-Wave and Z-Wave Plus devices through the Z-Wave protocol. With the developer PC application software, PC Controller, or any software compliant with Z-Wave Serial API, the host is empowered to communicate with various Z-Wave devices through the Z-Wave Command Classes, making your computer the heart of your Z- Wave network.

Controller software base on Z/IP*, such as Z-Ware enables you to create your own Z-Wave gateway that is locally or remotely hosted with a PC or single-board computers, such as Beagle Bone Black and Raspberry Pi.

    Do not buy, I am moving away from Z-Wave after this experience

    I added the “Silicon Labs UZB-7 Z-Wave 700 Stick” to Home Assistant and then realised it is set to USA and running very old firmware.

    The device was connected using a UGREEN USB extension cable to ensure a good connection throughout the below process – I also tested without the cable.

    I removed it from HA and installed Silicon Labs Simplicity Studio on my MacBook (a huge install when all you want is to upgrade the firmware) and it turns out you can update firmware on the Mac version. So onto my Windows 10 laptop (another weighty install)and upgraded to 7.21 using the file here: https://github.com/kpine/zwave-js-server-docker/wiki/700-series-Controller-Firmware-Updates-%28Linux%29#silicon-labs-uzb-7-slusb001a

    The upgrade was successful according to the logs but the device could no longer be read using Simplicity Studio even though it showed up correctly in device manager. I then upgraded the windows driver using this file: https://www.silabs.com/documents/public/software/CP210x_Universal_Windows_Driver.zip
    That didn’t help. I tried the same on a Windows 11 machine (sick of this bloated software) – same issue.

    I then connected it back to HA, Z-Wave JS can see it when editing the configuration but it fails to connect to it when the add-on is started.

    Attempting to downgrade the firmware to 7.18.8 using these commands also fails:
    apk add --no-cache npm
    npx -y @zwave-js/flash /dev/ttyUSB0 /config/fw.gbl --verbose

    It seems the device is bricked, I contacted OZ Smart Things support in mid Jan 2024 and they are yet to respond.

    Works great but

    This is working really well, however it came with the region set to EU which took some work to fix. Once changed over to AU, works very well.
