I used these instructions and the upgrade from 99 994 was a piece of cake. I was concerned about losing my hours of work to upgrade and there were no problems.

 

Migration from Previous Platforms

1. Make sure you have a backup of your working setup, if not make a fresh backup of your existing ISY

2. Unplug the existing ISY from the PLM, network, and power source

3. Plug in the network cable, then plug in your ISY994 to the same PLM

4. Login to your ISY994's Administrative Console using the default username / password (admin/admin) and choose File | Restore ISY

5. Choose the backup file identified in the first step

6. After your ISY994 reboots login with your password and verify all is back:

7a. Ensure sure your time/location settings are accurate

7b. Change QueryAll program to point to the main Scene (My Lighting or ISY)

8. If you have purchased modules for your ISY99, please send the UUIDs for both ISY99 and ISY994 to sales@universal-devices.com with subject "Transfer Modules"

9. If you are also replacing the Insteon power-line modem (PLM) you will have to use Restore Modem.

 

When I got to number 8 my climate and networking modules were missing. I sent the email to universal devices and they sent me the modules and then when I opened the modules, all of my previous "work" (data) was in them. It was seamless. The programs even repopulated themselves with the networking info that was missing before the modules were restored.
