for these parameters begin with 0 on the left margin and increase to the width of the display minus one pixel
(on the right margin).

Semi−graphic Displays
This field can be placed freely on the screen. Therefore, X can be set from
0 to the width of the display minus the width of the field in pixels.
On semi−graphic displays, such as those which can be connected to the
C130 CAN Controller, fields can only be placed evenly on every sixth
X−coordinate (X = 0, 6, 12, 18, etc.). On pure text displays the display of
bar graphics is not possible.

= 0, 8, 16, 24, etc.). On pure text displays the display of bar graphics is not
possible.
