    Gary, when picking the belt connections, try picking the driving connection instead of the components. Easiest way to do that is to change the smart filter in the lower right corner to "Connection". Once you have selected your two pin connections, you can come back and set a diameter value for each one. This is not a good example since it is gears, but it does illustrate how to connect the pin joints and make a belt connection.

    H‌i, Mr. Morris

    thanks for the help! I figure it out! I have a little question about the E*A, I don't know what does that stands for, what do I need to do with that parameter?
