The user can create a tension sensor as follows.

 

     Point, Distance

    Point: Selects a point on a body to define the center of tension sensor.

    Distance: Defines a range of region to measure output.

    Note: The user should define the sensing target entity by using Tension Sensor property page.

 

     Body, Point, Distance

    Body: Selects a body to define the parent body of tension sensor.

    Point: Selects a point to define the center of tension sensor.

    Distance: Defines a range of region to measure output.

    Note: The user should define the sensing target entity by using Tension Sensor property page.

 

     Assembled Body, Point, Distance

    Assembled Body: Selects an assembly as a target entity.

    Point: Selects a point to define the center of tension sensor.

    Distance: Defines a range of region to measure output.

 

     Body, Assembled Body, Point, Distance

    Body: Selects a body to define the parent body of tension sensor.

    Assembled Body: Selects an assembly as a target entity.

    Point: Selects a point to define the center of tension sensor.
