@The Transformers on device:true and ondevice:false

or

@"The Transformers" on device:true and ondevice:false

The series name itself does not appear in the search. Instead use the name of the user category you created in step 2.

You can see the correct syntax for the search by clicking on the user category name in the calibre tag browser. It will show you how to enter the search.

There are some screen shots of my test setup attached.

Also, is "device" supposed to be replaced with the specific device name or does it already understand which device this is after successfully completing step #3?

You select the device you added in step 3. It should be a drop-down list.

Finally, if I want to sync multiple different series in this way, and still want each series to show up as a separate series in Calibre Companion, do I need to create a new list for each series, or can I get multiple different series in one list?

You can put as many series as you want in the user category. In fact, you can also put authors, publishers, tags, or any other category you want.
