Checking the WL Help file under INI FILE OPTIONS
it seems to me cut numbers work ONLY with the command 
%N, i.e, %3 and you have the CUT NUMBER in the INI
file.
%3 would be sent as TT1, TT2 etc  %4 would be sent as
TTT1, TTT2, etc ONLY  IF 0=T is in the ini file. 
SO 0=T seems to be the ONLY number that can be used in
the CUT NUMBERS option....?????

Also note the example in the same help file of W5XD
setup shows the use of 5NN not 599 ...But I would not
bet money that I am 100% correct..hi
