axis command
An action you perform by using an axis during game play. Without a gaming device, axis commands are performed using a combination of keystrokes and mouse clicks. An axis command can also include such options as repeat speed for keystrokes, and sensitivity and dead zone.
If your WingMan gaming device has one or more axes or other bi-directional controls, axis commands are assigned to them. Because an axis has two directions (X axis and Y axis), it requires a command for each direction. The combined effect of the two commands is called an axis command.
