Cycle Markers Question

Timecode and Bars are the same thing for the purpose of this discussion. Yes, my locators move to the star and end of the selected loop. The big question is do you have to reset the range (Timecode or Bars & Beats) in the transport window in order to create EACH loop? If you do, then both of our systems work the same and the description about the cycle markers is misleading. If you don’t then, I am leaving out some kind of step that will make my loops engage in this mode.
