Abstract
A method for updating firmware of a locking device includes establishing a connection between a user device and the locking device and providing a set of firmware packages for display on a user interface of an application. The method includes receiving data indicative of a firmware package that has been selected via the user interface of the application. The method includes completing a transaction involving the firmware package. The method includes receiving, from an application server, installation data for the firmware package that has been selected. The method includes providing the installation data for the firmware package to the locking device to cause the locking device to use the installation data to update the firmware of the locking device, wherein the firmware, once installed on the locking device, allows for reconfiguration of firmware-controlled functions and operating modes of the locking device by supplementing or replacing firmware of the locking device.
