Specifying a cam connection’s height

I'm trying to have my cam connection to stop workingwhen the first cam isn't really touching the second cam. The first picture is a normal geneva wheel with the correct height and second picture is with the level difference.



In the second picture,since they're not really touching each other, they should not be moving but it seems that pro/e treats the cam surfaces to stretch infinitely in the vertical direction and works at any level of height. Is it possible to set a rangeof heightthat the cam connection is valid?
