How can I interface/connect Simscape multibody objects with multibody(1G) objects ?

Hi,

I am trying to figure out if there is any way to connect Simscape multibody objects with firsg generation (1G) multibody objects in order to make use capabilities of both. Any simple example or link to a document will be helpful.

Thanks.

These two can be part of the same model and can be connected using Simulink signals, but not via a direct mechanical connection.

I would strongly recommend, however, that you convert your first generation model to second generation and stop using first generation. You will find second generation is much more powerful than first generation.
