Note:
The second line of the query may indicate a failure; however, the query will still add the device driver .

It may be required to modify the PM8000.sql file to match the categories of DeviceType (first block of code) if the query continues to fail. Ensure the columns are listed and a value for each are specified in the 'SELECT' row, even if the value is set to null. Execute the query.
IF NOT EXISTS (SELECT ID FROM DeviceType WHERE Type ='8000')
INSERT INTO DeviceType (Type, DisplayName, TreeFile, MapFile, EthernetSupport, SecurityModules, UsesFlashFile, IONBufferSize_bytes, TranslatorID, UnsolicitedTickPeriod_ms)
SELECT '8000', 'PM8000', null, null, 2, 16, 1, 4096, [ID], 0 FROM Translator WHERE Name = 'ION';

When successful, the device type should be available in the drop-down list in the Management Console.
