You need to see if your cells are in number that you dont have problem with this the another thing is i recomend you that you use this image like example in the fittings of pipes you have a lot of families with lookup table open one to see how its work.

I added the lookup table name parameter.

Lookup Table Name should be a TEXT parameter.

Your "Option" parameter needs to be a length parameter, too. This is the "Lookup Column" which is intended for things such as "nominal size". So, delete that Option parameter, and create it again, as an instance, Length, parameter, not as integer or text and type. And, in the .csv file, change the header of the option parameter to be option##length##millimeters

What is the format of "option" parameter? It must be Length and from the screenshot it doesn't look like so.
