Modifying the idd in E+ is not recognized

I’m trying to increase the number of nodes in the E+ stratified tank model to more than 10. I modified the maximum number of nodes and added the the additional loss coefficient fields in both the idd and idf files. But I’m still getting the error “ not a valid object type “ so my guess is that the modifications I made in the idd file is not being read by E+. So am I doing something wrong or what?

Thanks
