Split files into smaller ones with 1000 hierarchies in a single file.

Code:
input file:
AD,00,--,---,---,---,---,---,---,--,--,---
   AM,000,---,---,---,---,---,---
   AR, ,---,--,---,---
   AA,---,---,---,---
   AT,---
   AU,---,---,---
   AS,---,---
   AP,---,---,---
   AI,---
AD,00,---,---,---, ,---,---,---,---,---,---
   AM,000,---,---,---
   AR, ,---,---,---
   AS,---,---
AD,01,---,---,---,---,---,---,---,---,---
   AA,001,---,---
   AU,---,---,---
AD,00,---,---,---,---,---,---,---,---,---,---
   AP,---,---,---,---,---,---,---
AD,01,---,---,---,---,---
   AS,---,---,---,---
   AI,---,---

Basics of file:
Record starting with 'AD' is the parent record and all the sub records starting with other sequences are its properties (of parent 'AD' record).
"," is the delimiter for the file.
There may be as lowest as 1 property or as highest as 8 properties for each hierarchy ('AD' record).
There may be millions of such hierarchies...

Requirement:
So need to split the master file into several sub files such that each sub file contain 1000 hierarchies each (1000 'AD' records along with their properties records)

I tried using code: awk '/AD/{x="F"++i;}{print > x;}' test.txt
but i see the hierarchies are divided with 1 hierarchy in each file.
Can someone help me to divide file such that there are 1000 hierarchies in each file.
Also i notice that after file split the hierarchy records are coming in 1 single line rather than multiple lines as like in source file.
Could someone please help me on the same.

Attached is the sample input file.

NAME
ppmtosixel - convert a portable pixmap into DEC sixel format SYNOPSIS
ppmtosixel [-raw] [-margin] [ppmfile] DESCRIPTION
Reads a portable pixmap as input. Produces sixel commands (SIX) as output. The output is formatted for color printing, e.g. for a DEC LJ250 color inkjet printer. If RGB values from the PPM file do not have maxval=100, the RGB values are rescaled. A printer control header and a color assignment table begin the SIX file. Image data is written in a compressed format by default. A printer control footer ends the image file. OPTIONS
-raw If specified, each pixel will be explicitly described in the image file. If -raw is not specified, output will default to com- pressed format in which identical adjacent pixels are replaced by "repeat pixel" commands. A raw file is often an order of magni- tude larger than a compressed file and prints much slower. -margin If -margin is not specified, the image will be start at the left margin (of the window, paper, or whatever). If -margin is speci- fied, a 1.5 inch left margin will offset the image. PRINTING
Generally, sixel files must reach the printer unfiltered. Use the lpr -x option or cat filename > /dev/tty0?. BUGS
Upon rescaling, truncation of the least significant bits of RGB values may result in poor color conversion. If the original PPM maxval was greater than 100, rescaling also reduces the image depth. While the actual RGB values from the ppm file are more or less retained, the color palette of the LJ250 may not match the colors on your screen. This seems to be a printer limitation. SEE ALSO
