[Limdep Nlogit List] Marginal effects for Latent class choice model (ordered logit kernel) in NLOGIT6

Hello,
[Gentle reminder] I am using NLOGIT6 to estimate a latent class choice
model with an ordered logit kernel. The model specifications include two
classes and three outcome levels of the ordinal dependent variable. The
model runs successfully, except it gives an error for estimating marginal
effects:

"RP cannot compute ME for ORDERED when J > 9.."

Here is the script:

CREATE ; LC1, LC2 $

ORDERED; Lhs = EV_BUY

; Rhs = one, AGE2, AGE3, AGE4, GENDER,TIER1 ,EV_FAMIL, PTPV_CHE,
RS2,CDIST,CTIME,PTDIST, CP2, CAROWNER, EMP1, PT_FAMIL,TW, CAB, PT, AUTO

; Model = logit; maxit=100; Partial Effects

; LCM = ONE,PROEV1,GC1,FEP1; Pts = 2; classp = LC1, LC2$


>From the error, it seems that NLOGIT6 does not support calculating marginal
effects for this model specification. Please assist me with this issue.
