Could anyone please help me in animation in creo parametric 3.0??

Details: as the picture above i have attached here,
Parts: 2 gears and 1 part (rod)
Gear ratio:1:1
Gear1 : is fixed
Gear 2 : is mounted above the Gear 1 (centre distance is 30 mm)
Rod: alone rotates along the centre axis and it connected to gear 2. in order to control the motion, Gear 2 revolves as it mounted on the gear1 and gear 2 revolves because it connected to rod on the top

i would like to animate: If i give the force to rod (i dont know how to assemble and animate the rod) as i shown in the picture the gear 2 should rotate along with the rod and motion along gear 1

Before you start animation you need to have the following three parts in your assembly and in the same order:
1. A carrier
2. Central Fixed gear
3. Rotating cum revolving gear.

The carrier part is assembled with "default" assembly constraints.
The central gear assembled with the carrier part using a pin joint constraint.
Similarly the other gear is also assembled with carrier part using the pin joint constraint.

In mechanism application, define the gear joint using generic gear type.
Define a servo motor with axis coinciding with rotational axis of the rotational gear.
Define a Kinematic analysis and run it !

I am unable to upload the animation file because file size restrictions. You need the animation file please send me a private message with your e-mail id. I will give the file to you.
 
Yeah, it should work that way
