How does a NF Zerostop work on the windage knob?

I hate to ask such a dumb question, but I just bought a used NXS with zero stops from someone on this board. Sent the check today and got to thinking. I understand how a zero stop works for elevation, but it says zero stops, so I assume there is one for windage. However, you have to be able to dial windage in either direction. So a zero stop doesn't make much sense. Is there a zero stop on the windage, and if so, how does it work?

The windage simply limits each way less than a rev so you can't get crazy spinning it.

Thank you sir, THAT makes good sense, I got my NXS in the Mail yesterday, but no mounts to try it out with yet.
Thanks,

I could be wrong......very wrong ;D

But I don't think you will have a Zero stop on the Windage knob. When I ordered my NF NXS, the zero stop was for elevation only. It's really unecessary for windage. In my experience with my Zero stop, I have never wanted it for windage, but it is a very very very cool feature for elevation!!

Again, I could be wrong.
