3-2 Backing up device information from FieldMate to PRM
After performing device tuning using FieldMate, select the Backup activity to transfer device information from FieldMate to PRM. This feature enables FieldMate to make full use of the larger capacity of PRM to store device information. Before proceeding with the activity, you can enable an option to delete selected devices in FieldMate after the data transfer.
Newly-imported devices in PRM appear in the Spare folder of Plant view, in the respective protocol folder in Network view, and under the actual class of the device in Class view. Devices that were included in the previous data transfer will remain in the same view and folder.

Synchronizing Devices in STARDOM Upstream ProjectTIPThe followings describes sample case and operation work flow only for STARDOM user.
In STARDOM upstream project, the synchronization between PRM and FieldMate works except the project name portion of the extended device tag. Project name is ignored.
Table 4-4 Sample case with project setting mode
PRM devicesCurrent mode:Tag+Descriptor+Project Name
Operation and OutcomeFieldMate devices
Current mode:Tag+Descriptor
[Not exist](Backup as “EJA005-PIPE02”) Backup OK EJA005-PIPE02
Registered mode:Tag+Descriptor
EJX004-PIPE02_WELL01Registered mode:Tag+Descriptor+Project Name
Restore OK [Not exist](Restored as “EJX004-PIPE02”)
EJA001-PIPE01_WELL01Registered mode:Tag+Descriptor+Project Name
Sync OK EJA001-PIPE01Registered mode:
Tag+DescriptorSync OK
In STARDOM upstream project, since the devices imported from FieldMate do not contain device path information, it is also expected that the device tags of the imported devices do not contain the project name, and the device tags can be updated with the project name only after Plug & Play.
If the device has been synchronized before, renaming the device tag on one side will still update the device tag on the other side properly after synchronization. The same behavior can be expected for the other way around.
