how to change the system of ODEs (using event functions) when one of the solutions reaches certain value?

Hello

I have a system of 10 coupled differential equations (with initial conditions), and in this system there are parameters depending on the solutions of this system, and other parameters are constant. the thing I want to do is to change the system when one of the solutions (y (2)) reaches a certain value. so the final values of the solutions of the first system will be the initial conditions of the following system .

I used the ode45 solver. I have used event functions, but changing the system doesn't work. may be I didn't use it correctly.

I want the first change occurs when y(2)>=638.9 , and the second change occurs when y(2)<638.9

thank you in advance.

this is the first system (the difference between systems is in dydt(1), dydt(2) and dydt(3)):

%===================param depending on y( )==============
rho_w = (-3.51e-6 * y(2)^2 + 2.01e-3 * y(2) + 0.7125);
hC = 4.18 * rho_w * y(1)+ 1.8364e54;
Pw = y(4) * X_f / 1e-4;
rho = (1/beta) - ((1/beta) * (eta * 2.3102e-23 / 2.3102e-23 + gamma_mf * ((0.1111*y(1)*rho_w) / 2.8867e+07) ...

        - 1.5779e+10 * ( rho_w * 4.18 * ( y(2) - 423) / hC)* ((1.8607e+07 - y(1) ) / (1.2355e+07));

      + lambda_6 * y(10) ) + S_spont ; 
dydt(5) = (beta_1 * y(4)/1e-4) - lambda_1 * y(5);
dydt(6) = (beta_2 * y(4)/1e-4) - lambda_2 * y(6);

I found this example on modeling a bouncing ball very helpful when I was trying to use ODE event.
