Horizontal direction starting point [(xL + xH x 256) x basic calculated pitch]

Vertical direction starting point [(yL + yH x 256) x basic calculated pitch]

Horizontal direction length [(dxL + dxH x 256) basic calculated pitch]

Vertical direction length = [(dyL + dyH x 256) basic calculated pitch]
