Symptoms:
My existing *SND map has already 8 occurrences of the AMT segment starting in 210.
My trading partner is asking me to add 2 more. I have been trying to add 2 more by right clicking on the last instance of the AMT series. There is NO "Options" option on this instance to do it.
Diagnosis:
When the map was initially setup, the recurrence of 8 for the AMT segment was done by right clicking the AMT segment (210), [Options], [Exactly 8]. When this segment is multiplied, the first occurrence is considered the loop header, where only there we could adjust the Properties and the number of recurrence of that segment. The succeeding AMT segments are just instances which was a result of the definition on that "loop header".
Prescription:
By default, the AMT (210) segments has a maximum of 8 recurrences. To allow 10, the Properties has to be adjusted on the AMT "loop header".
