Default Item Type Flow question

I built this model using send to port by expression to control the item flow.

However, why does item type 3 stop and does not move to Conveyor 10 in this set up?

In conveyor12 you've setup your flow with "getitemtype". Because of that the conveyor12 tries to send your item type 3 to port number 3. This port doesn't exist! You have to add a new "A" connection from conveyor12 to conveyor10.
