NOTE: CognitiveTPG does not recommend using volatile RAM for stored
objects, since objects stored in volatile RAM is lost when the printer is turned
off. However, you may want to use volatile RAM to store variables or objects
that will change frequently.

• When using volatile RAM for object storage, you must

allocate space for that purpose. Refer to the

VARIABLE

ALLOCATE

command for more information.

• You must assign an alphanumeric identifier to every stored

object. The identifier can be from one to eight characters

long, using any combination of letters and numbers (no
punctuation). If an object in memory already uses the

specified identifier, the printer deletes the existing object
before storing the new one, even if the two objects would

reside in different memory areas.

Also notice that some of these commands are used in place of the
normal label format header line, rather than as ASCII commands

within a label format. Commands starting with an exclamation point
(!) should be treated as header line replacements.
