Vectoring
You use this function to combine the movement of the X and Z
axes with the angle of the compound. Vectoring is only available
on 3 axis units.
The Vectoring function is useful when the compound is set at
an angle. If the compound is set to align with either the X or the
Z axes, see Summing on page 9-4.
