Seitz Roundshot 220VR lenses

Once again I am trying to match a new lens to my Seitz Roundshot 220VR camera.

The manual descibes a " shoot some film and judge with your eyes" procedure
to find the "exact" focal length.

There is also a "distance to mainplane h value" for each lens when entering
information into the camera's controller.

Can someone explain what this "h" value is and how it is calculated for a
lens that is not in the manual's lens list???

Also is it practical to use zoom lenses?
I'm trying a Nikkor 20-35 AF-D lens with the barrel taped down on the 24mm
mark.
This lens covers the full height of the film at 24mm, but not at 20 mm.

Is anyone using a fixed Nikkor 24mm and does it cover the full height of
the film?

Thanks.
