Vaccuum Advance is a purely mechanical method for varying the amount of Spark Advance based on engine load.  A vac-advance distributor is connected to a source of engine vacuum.  As vacuum increases, forces of suction rotate the distributor, creating more ignition advance.
The ECU cannot control timing at all with a vacuum advance distributor.
