Steve, I have read the responses and eventually you could get correct output the direction you are going but I would recomend a change. The post you are creating will be very limited and need to be changed each time you come up with another index angle or H offset. Smartcam is capable of handling the indexing based on how it is programmed in the model. You must set up the SMF to handle indexing, see 289,292,298, and 303. It will much better if you let SC keep track of indexing.
