T3 is basically same as T1 and 600, x50 etc. as far as collections go.
sony_collection_sorting_rules = [(['author_sort'], 'series_index')]
Is what I use.
When I have series collections it sorts them in order
When I have author_sort collections it sorts them
series 1 book 1
series 2 book 2
....
series 3 book 1
....
Which is what I want but non standard

My plugboard is
format epub
device PRST1
source template {author_sort}{series:| - | }{series_index:0>2s}
Destination Field authors

this gives me LN,FN series series index in the author field

in the author field and then I have the Sony ereader (on reader itself) sort set to author so the books are sorted by series since the author is generally the same so does'nt affect sorting.

I probably don't need both, but I seem to think I do.

Books must be re sent for plugboard to work.
You can change your send books template and the sony_collection tweak and it will change your collection types/sort when you connect, so it is easier to experiment with.
