Polisy Pro to EISY migration

[SHM]

I am planning on upgrading my old Polisy Pro (running PG3X 3.3.18, IoX 5.9.1 with internal ZWave/Zmatter card installed) to a new EISY.  The migration instructions are a bit confusing.  When I open the ZWave menu in the AC, there is no submenu selection for migration.  So, do I make a backup of the ZWave network on the Polisy, then remove the card from the polisy and install in the EISY, then add the EISY to the AC and restore the ZWave network?

The ZWave backup and ZWave restore is the way I also understand it, since you're already using the Zwave/Zmatter board.

The "Migrate to ZMatter/ZWave" menu option only appears (in the Configuration -> System menu, not Zwave) if you're currently using a Zooz 700 series stick and you want to go to the ZMatter dongle.

I am in the same situation.  I assume I must order the EISY and zwave eclosure (planning to move my old zwave board to the new EISY.  I did not see the “migrate to zmatter” option.  (I guess the reason is that I am not using the zooz dongle, but it makes me concerned that the instructions are not updated or complete.).  I must admit that similar transitions in the past did not go smoothly for me and my ambition for future upgrades is waning. Are there any other particular tricks or pitfalls that I should be watching out for?

Going from a Polisy already using the zmatter board to eisy should be as simple as a backup and restore, because they are both running the same version of IoX. You only really have the enclosure to be concerned with, and convert the PLM to USB (with the serial adapter cable, or get a USB PLM).
