Monitor
Monitor the distance or angle between faces or edges during a simulation using the Monitor command.
Each monitored Angle or Distance is listed in the Physics Navigator, under the Runtime Behaviors node.
You can use the Graph command to display the monitored measurements, and determine and test kinematic characteristics, such as clearances.
You can use the Adopt Animation Designer Joints command to import monitored distances or angles created in Animation Designer, and then use and edit them in Mechatronics Concept Designer.
