Under the Connections folder, insert a Contact Tool, then Generate Initial Contact Status and see if the contact lists as Near Open. That means it will be included in the simulation.
If you make the Pinball radius small, and Generate Initial Contact Status again, it will be Far Open. That means it will not be included in the simulation.
Under the Analysis Settings, turn on Large Deflection
