*** error - maximum number of boundary conditions 26 has been exceeded

I caught this error today when trying to use table input for Lbcs.
Before that, I used non table input with these lbcs without any problem.
 
Is there any solution for this? Why there is such limitation?

    I never came across this error message. What version of Marc are you using?

    You must have an entry
    BOUNDARY CONDITIONS, 26
    in the parameter section of the marc input deck. You can increase this to a large number of or delete this entry as it is not a required entry.
     
    You can see details of this entry in Vol C. (Program Input Manual).
