NOTE: All CPL-RFID Configuration-Setup Commands are processed outside the context of a standard CPL Label-Format (i.e. CPL beginning with a header-line ‘! 0 100 nnn 1’ and ending with ‘END’). So, attempts to use CPL-RFID Configuration-Setup Commands within a Label-Format result in being completely and unabashedly ignored without indication.

Additionally, only static valued strings will print with this command. Delimited variable substitution is an intra- label-format function only. For example, variables such as “$RF_IDNUM$” may not be used.
