From Type, choose the type of body contact you want to add.
This field is populated from the technology file.
Select the net to which you want to attach the body contacts.
From the Layer list, select the reference layer for the body contacts.
In Separation, enter the distance in microns that you want between body contacts and devices. This value is added to minimum DRC to space the body contact.
Select Remember Values to save values for all dummy devices.
Click OK or Apply.

Body contact properties are set as per your specifications.

You can edit body contact parameters using the Property Editor assistant in the Modgen editor window.
