Narrative:
P210 departed runway 1 VFR. Called for IFR clearance in the air. I gave the aircraft a transponder code and radar idented him. I gave the aircraft clearance to destination and cleared to 4000 ft. C182 was at 5000 ft eastbound. I called traffic to the P210 twice and informed him I would have higher when he cleared traffic. When the targets merged, I lost mode C on P210. When they cleared each other, his mode C showed 5400 ft. I asked his altitude and informed him his clearance limit was 4000 ft.
