Followed the directions and upgraded. Did the RBS750 units first and then the RBR750. Appears to be working well.
One important note, I did need to restart each RBS750 after the RBR750 was upgraded to re-establish connection. As each is on a UPS and mounted on the all, required a ladder.
Otherwise working fine at this time.
I didn't see the "IoT" network feature at first. You need to go into Wireless setup. You'll then see a "Wireless IoT Settings' and the ability to "enable" an IoT wireless SSID along with password.
Nice to have this feature added finally. I believe it's important to have a Trusted, IoT and Guest wireless SSID.

I am new to the mesh system and I tried to update the firmware, but I screw up and did not update the satellites first. Now the satellites will not connect to the router. Is there any corrective action that I can take to fix the problem?

Downgrade the RBR back to what you had loaded on it. I presume the last v4 version of FW? Go back to that.

Do you have RBS750s?
