Extracting T-values From Advanced Scan from within a loop.

Greetings to all. I am new to PC-DMIS. My company bought a CMM in March of 2021, Has Version 2020 R2. It is a Global 05.07.05

Our company makes spherical washers ranging in OD size from ≈1 inches to 3 inches.

Currently I can use a linear closed scan from the ID to OD and have ≈40-60 hits generated.

What I want to do after the scan is loop through the the number of hits and report the T-values from that scan.

Unfortunately, what I've come across during the loop is that ≈10 iterations in, the T-values don't match and are rising when creating the dimension.

If code will help let me know.

Additionally, are there any other sites/ pages to look at to get a better understand of how the functions are supposed to work.

I am presently not at the CMM.

To compound things a little further. is it possible to tell a subsequent scan where to start without having to adjust the alignment?

That is I want to make sure that all my scans start at the same XYZ/IJK and am wondering if I can create variable assignments to the following scans...i.e.

ASSIGN/V_X2START = {formula base on angle of rotation & first scans TX value}
ASSIGN/V_I2START = Same as above except TI
...

Then code these variables where the SHOWALLPARAMS=NO section is for the scan?

I know rotating the alignment is definitely easier; however, one of my companies customers tends to be rather anal about technicalities and may force where I work to not rotate the alignment..

Thanks for the help (again!)
