Auxiliary sweep continuation does not work

I tried to model deformation of two contact geometries, using thermal load. The thermal load for these two geometries is applied in a sequence, first geometry has thermal load and then second geometry has thermal load. I used stationary study step, checked the Auxiliary sweep, and add a parameter T in the parameter name, specified combinations, the range is set like range(100, 100, 200). This T is set to the geometry in the corresponding solid mechanic node, linear elastic material model.
I want to use the solution from T = 100 in the first geometry as the initial value for the calculation of T = 200 in the second geometry(or the calculation of T = 200 in the second geometry is based on the results of T = 100 in the first geometry). I set the Run continuation for parameter T, reuse solution for previous steps : Yes.
However, the result is not as expected. It just show results of T = 200 and T = 100 individually, namely, the calculation of T = 200 is not based on T =100. Can anybody helps?
Thanks in advance!
