USB at the device.
Connect one GHL controller directly to its own bridge. USB hubs are not supported. The bridge connects to your local Wi-Fi.
In development · Beta interest
GHL firmware updates.
Without the cable run.
Update your main GHL controller over local Wi-Fi, or update a supported PAB device in place with the rest of the chain connected. Tested update paths restart the device by software, so there’s no manual power cycle during a normal update.
I’m interested in beta testing →An independent project by TelegrahamTested.
The idea
Less setup between you and an update.
A browser you already use.
Access the bridge from your phone or computer, with a straightforward interface to guide the update.
A clearer path through.
Choose the main controller or a supported PAB target in the browser. Follow the transfer and verification, then let the device restart by software on tested paths. Manual power cycling is available as a recovery fallback.
USB hubs · Not supported
One bridge for each controller.
USB hubs vary too much, and acceptable results cannot be obtained with them. Connect each controller directly to its own Sentinel Flash bridge.
A firmware update needs a dependable connection from start to finish. In testing, hubs sometimes dropped every connected device when one controller restarted, and speed suffered with several controllers attached.
Each controller can still reach its supported PAB accessories.
Device compatibility · November 2026
Which GHL devices work?
The bridge connects by USB to the main device, and you run the update from a browser over Wi-Fi. In-place PAB updates depend on the controller, the target device, and compatible relay support on any intermediate devices.
Supported & confirmed in beta
Light WiFi
Firmware update, verification, software restart and settings restore. Additional variants, including the pump controller, still need testing.
ProfiLux Mini WiFi
Connects and reads. Firmware updates and restores are off in this beta.
Doser 2.1 Standalone
Connect it directly to the bridge. Firmware update, verification and software restart. This controller can also update supported PAB accessories without disconnecting them from their bus.
ProfiLux 4 on 7.53
Stock 7.53 reinstall with full flash verification and software restart. This controller can also update supported PAB accessories without disconnecting them from their bus.
Tested with Doser 2/2.1 EXT, Maxi 2.2 EXT and ION Director. Compatibility depends on the devices along the PAB path.
In development
Mitras LX7 — next lighting target. Its USB update and restart workflow still needs bench validation.
Other models, including Mitras LX6, LX8 and Lightbar, ProfiLux 4e and 4.1, and Doser 3, have no confirmed support listed here.

A few things to know.
Is this the GHL Wi-Fi module firmware updater?
Sentinel Flash focuses on updating the GHL device’s firmware through its USB connection. Device firmware and the device’s Wi-Fi module firmware are separate.
What about recovery after an interrupted update?
Recovery tooling is part of Sentinel Flash’s scope. It supports the main goal of straightforward wireless firmware updates; recovery features and supported recovery states are still being developed.
Is this an official GHL product?
No. Sentinel Flash is an independent TelegrahamTested project and is not affiliated with or endorsed by GHL. GHL product names belong to their respective owners.
