How to create cable maker with cangeable wire number?
VW01.dwg is non trigger wire number, I had create new block "VW1.dwg" however it still not trigger to change new number. refer to the manual (sh:182) the "W0" means not to trigger wire number.

I think you are right that the 3rd character is a "1" to trigger the change
but you might need the 4th character to indicate if it is a parent or child.
You might try VW11.dwg.

It looks like cable markers are not really intended to trigger a wire change
since it is just marking the wire as part of a cable. But, that said I think
you can force it to trigger a wire change if you change one of the wire
connection attribute names. There probably are two X?TERM01 attributes.
Change one of them to X?TERM02 and give it a try. I cannot say if there will
be any unintended consequences to this since as I said this isn't something
that is recommended for a cable marker.
