I'm about to upgrade a first generation Apple TV unit that is currently hosting HomeKit and want to know how to do it without messing up our configuration which includes the Logitech Circle View Doorbell, Lutron Caseta, ecobee, etc. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
HomeKit is not located on the Apple TV box (instead in iCloud), so there isn’t anything to transfer.
For a smooth transition, activate One Home Screen on the older model, then set up the new unit. You should be asked to also use One Home Screen on the new one, effectively copying apps and settings.

Users that buy new Apple devices can make use of priority complimentary support in the first 90 days, to help you get set up and use your purchase effectively. You may also ask your HomeKit related questions to an expert from the support staff. Contact Apple for support and service - Apple Support.
