How can I extract remote connection rotation at each time step via commands?

  Hello,
  I applied the follwoing code to get the rotation of a remote point for every time step. I get the same values for both steps which correspond to the final step. I'm definitely doing something wrong. Any suggestions?
  !Time step config
  total_time=1
  time_steps=2
  time_inc=total_time/time_steps
  
  *cfopen,'E:\ANSYS MODEL\results','txt'
  *do,time,time_inc,total_time,time_inc
  SET, time
  pinion_rotz = ROTZ(pinion_pilot)
  wheel_rotz = ROTZ(wheel_pilot)
  pinion_rotz = pinion_rotz*180/pi
  wheel_rotz = wheel_rotz*180/pi
  
  *vwrite, time, pinion_rotz, wheel_rotz
  (F10.6)
  *enddo
  *cfclos ! close the output file
  
  Thanks,
