the metadata series is set, the plugboard is also set. maybe there's something i should check or do? or is the plugboard not working?
It is called Alpha Sorted (text). Each character has a digital representation in a file. This is code is a standard.
The sort is by position and ASCII weight.
If you want 1 before 10, you must pad with a leading 0 so all have the same length (01) (you could use a space, but that is really hard to see in lots of cases)
