Hello everyone
This morning, i try to upgrade the firmware Aeotech ZWA010 from 7.19.2 to the latest one which it seems to be 7.21.6
I follow these step
When I upload the firmware file ( zwave_ncp_serial_api_controller_BRD4206A_7_21_6.gbl )
I’ve got an error and device was become unavailable
I am unable to reconnect it
I can see in the zwavejs log

Shutting down
[08:11:13] WARNING: Halt add-on
So i try to «disable automatic controller recovery» and restart but same issue
I guess I bricked my controller …
In the past I already upgrade my firmware directly with a raspberry pi using this doc Update Z-Pi 7 with Raspbian OS / RPi (V7.18.8) : Aeotec Help Desk with no issue …
If someone have any idea
PS: HA is installed on raspberry 4 with the USB dongle connected on it
