Generating time dependent analysis

I am having some problems with a time dependent analysis in the mechanical module. I want to simulate the response of my part to a load that is time dependent.
So I have defined a triangulare function tri1 defined from 0 to 2. Then I use that function to define my variable load with the following expression on an axis in the solid mechanics module for a point load: 1000*tri1((t)[1/s])[N].
Following that I set my solver to solve the problem going from 0 to 2 with a step every 0.5s. I explicite this both at the step1: time dependent menu and at the solver1 sub-menu. The rest of my parameters are left in their default state.
When I solve my problem however I have the same result returned to me for every time step (no matter what value I enter in the time interpolated menu in my plot menu).
I am obviously missing something but can't figure out what. Do you guys have any idea of what might be going wrong or any tutorials I could read (I haven't found any on the subject).
Thanks!
