Posted March 31, 20205 yr I'm currently running V4.7.5 and am thinking of upgrading to 5.0.16c but am hesitant to do so because every time I upgrade, it takes me days to get back to a working system and that is when I'm upgrading from a V4.x.x system to a higher V4.x.x system. I have read many posts in this forum about upgrading to V5 and there are a lot of conflicting instructions and what seems to be a lot of problems with programs and devices. Also, I want to know "exactly" how to fall back to V4.7.5 if everything goes south with the V5 upgrade. I have a lot of different modules from old X10 to Insteon and Z-Wave. Can someone write up an all inclusive upgrade / fallback post which gives step by step instructions. It should also include problems I'm likely to encounter and what I need to do to fix them. If I've missed a post that gives this information, I'd love to know how to find it. Thanks.
March 31, 20205 yr This is as good as I've seen: https://forum.universal-devices.com/topic/26381-upgrade-from-473-to-5015a-task-list/
March 31, 20205 yr Author Thanks Bumbershoot. Is there a similar post for reverting back to a V4 system once I try V5 and fail?
March 31, 20205 yr No, but that's easy. Make a backup before you upgrade, then if you want to fall back, just reinstall the V4 firmware and restore the backup.
