# IMPORTANT: Prepare for the new Homey Pro 2023 firmware 12.2.0

### This only applies to users of Homey Pro 2023

Athom will introduce a change in Homey Pro 2023 firmware which will make it behave like the Pre Homey Pro 2023 firmware. In the older firmware Homey did not automatically create flow cards for Custom Capabilities that replaced build-in capabilities, this was unfortunately changed upon the release of Homey Pro 2023. This meant that Homey created flow cards that were never intended to be created but Athom has now decided to revert to the old method. This is good news as such for Homey Pro 2023 users because _ **Heimdall** _ will now only have the intended flow cards that specifically fit _ **Heimdall** _ just like the older Homeys!

Unfortunately there’s also a downside to this. Any user that has used any of the unintended flow cards in flows will have to replace these cards with the intended cards, if you however have used the first post and posts in this topic to configure _ **Heimdall** _ you’ve used the correct flow cards, just make sure to check your flows.

If you have flows that use the flow cards that will be removed and you don’t prepare before the release the flows will be shown as broken after the firmware is installed on your Homey.

# What will you need to change?

## When: Act on a Surveillance Mode change

If you used the **The state changed** card from the **Surveillance Mode Switch** you will have to replace it with the apps **Surveillance Mode changed** card, the token from that card will hold the new **Surveillance Mode**.

So, replace:

## And: Check the Surveillance Mode

If you used the **The state is** card from the **Surveillance Mode Switch** you will have to replace it with the apps **Surveillance Mode is** card.

So, replace:

## Then: Set the Surveillance Mode

If you used the **Set state** card from the **Surveillance Mode Switch** you will have to replace it with the **Set Surveillance Mode to** card.  
(If you already use the **Set Surveillance Mode to** card you’re fine)

So, replace:

## Then: Deactivate the Alarm

If you used the **Press the button** card from either the **Alarm** or **Surveillance Mode Switch** you will have to replace it with the apps **Deactivate Alarm** card.

So, replace:

It is not clear when this new firmware will be release, it was supposed to go out to beta on the 7th of oktober but seems delayed.
