Write Tag command.

startblock Location of data in the RFID tag. The PPI1 only supports Alien Technology Class 1a tags, which have only one 8– byte block. Therefore, startblock will be set to 0, regardless of the specified value.

retriescount The number of automatic attempts to write data into the tag if previous writes failed. The PPI1 absorbs the number and uses the value on the operator panel.

nomotionflag Set this flag to 1 to program data into the tag without moving the label. The PPI1 does not move the label regardless of the value. The user needs to print something on the label to program the data into the tag and eject the label.

writeprotect This flag indicates whether the data should be protected from being overwritten later. The default is 0,
