Planner Simulation Probes, PCF vs SSC files

I know this info has already been posted on here before.  I tried finding the info using forum search and using google search with the site operator and still can't find it.  Don't hate me for double posting.  

But here's my question:  I got a new computer(old one fried) and am setting up the planner simulation again.  Is there a way to get my PCF probes to use the same name as the SSC probe systems?  For example, I want to build the probes in SSC, then use those probes when I create programs.  Here's the important thing:  I don't want to swap probes names when I transfer to live CMM.  I think there's a way to do this I read on here before.  Kinda like mating the PCF probe to the corresponding SSC probe

It's not really a big deal, But since I'm going thru the trouble to set up my planner seat again I want to do it right.

So you want go the reverse way, transfer the name from the PCF to the SSC? Because the normal way (SSC to PCF) is not a problem, as a PCF takes its name with it when exported. My usual workflow is to make the SSC, import it at offline seat, create program offline, then export PCF from offline and import at live CMM. The names are always consistent. Transferring from PCF to SSC would be much more complex (a SSC is a zip archive with many files in it, where the name is stored multiple times)

Maybe it was the names I had off last time.  I never really paid attention to it.  But I figured I'd get everything setup right this time.
