NX motion link around closed loop/ track

(OP)
Hi

i have a joint spline which I want to use a my loop or track. An object is defined as a link and I used to joints (Point on curve)
to define the objects position on the curve. How do I now simulated
the object moving along the curve with a constant speed?

(OP)
I need some help with this. Please.  Sounds simular to thread561-272861: Simulate motion of a bearing block on a closed loop track
however there was no solution mentioned as to how I can add a proper driver which always ensures a constant speed. The object is actually driven by chains however the chain is laid on s curve/ closed loop.

That thread was for Assembly constraints, not motion simulation.
