How to implement angular range constraints in SimMechanics 2nd Generation?

Hi

I'm trying to use SimMechanics 2nd Gen to model a revolute joint with angular ranges of +-90 degrees.

SimMechanics has a fixed angle constraint, but I would like to move my system till it reaches the limits and only then have the constraint engage.

Can you please advise how I can do this? I've successfully implemented this using the SimScape foundation library but I cannot correctly interface this to SimMechanics. The joint goes past the angular limits.

Any help would be appreciated.

Regards

Amir

There is an Angle Constraint block in Simscape/SimMechanics/2ndgeneration/Constraints but I dont know how to use it...!!
