Rotating B inside a loop command

Question
I have a cylinder with 6 holes on the side, I program 1 hole and create a loop to do the other 5. My cmm head (Renishaw PH10M) starts at A90B-90. My cylinder is in the Z axis direction, I am working on some code to set the B rotation with a variable but no success can use some help if anyone knows of a way to solve this. Your help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you,

  • Yessir, just go a little further and it'll work fine-


    ASSIGN/VANG=T1A60B + (Your angle here)
                TIP/VANG, SHANKIJK=-0.866, 0, 0.5, ANGLE=90




    And yes, just make sure you have all potential angles created and calibrated. If your Assign statement tells it to find a tip that is not created, you run into problems.
