    If the trolley is modeled with shock absorbers, special prismatic commands are displayed on this tab page. You can specify which ones to use, as well as their priority.

    If multiple shock absorbers are defined, they are exercised based on their specified Priority (from the lowest priority value to the highest). The same value can be set for multiple shock absorbers, and these will be exercised simultaneously.

  9. Click OK.
