The bottom portion of the Boundary Points and Vectors area displays a list of vectors that PC-DMIS will use to start and stop a scan. Some of the vectors listed below may not be found in the list for a specific scan, indicating that they are not used for that scan. Please refer to each scan for more details. You can edit each of these vectors by double-clicking on the vector to edit in the vector column.
