hart2hart Posted May 13, 2023 Posted May 13, 2023 (edited) I'm taking steps to migrate from my trusty ISY (5.0.16C) and POLISY (PG3 current version) to eisy. As first step, I want to get blank eisy set up properly. I had UD Mobile installed when I plugged it in (ethernet cable first and then power) but UD mobile did not take me through the setup. IoX already installed so I connected to eisy via it and set time zone then did upgrade packages -- now at 5.6.0. Kind of glimpsing that UD Mobile may only guide one through setup if eisy is connected via Wi-Fi -- correct? Between update TPM and upgrade bios, do I need to perform either. I recall setting up TPM when I installed the POLISY. Do I need to do that for eisy? Do not remember reading anything on an updated bios but want to confirm. I'll be upgrading from ISY with 5.0.16C and 300 series z-wave board (two Schlage 300 deadbolts are only significant z-wave devices -- rest are just to get enough of a mesh to support them and mesh is nearly 100% effective). Moving from PG3 on POLISY (9 nodeservers) to PG3x on eisy. I'm also running isylink. Therefore, I've been looking at some of the step-by-step guides. Please let me know if you've used one of them and how it went or how you would update it. Thanks and looking forward to the holy grail of eisy in coming week or two!

No, at least I've never hit either of those buttons on the eisy. You might need UD Mobile to setup the portal trial on the eisy, but you've been around long enough you can probably run through those steps on your own without the help of UD Mobile. I think UD Mobile was just the quickest/easiest way to get users setup with the eisy and the portal trial straight out of the box. There are certainly the tried and true method of admin console from a computer (such as you've done) that should work just as well. 1

Be aware, you can not migrate from ISY with 300 series Zwave board, you will need to recreate your Zwave network. Also, per the migration documentation you must be on a minimum firmware of 5.3.4 to migrate. 1

While researching other forum posts and install instructions for ISY FW yesterday, my draft plan is to upgrade to 500 as a step in the process of moving to 5.3.4.
