Bounding is necessary to rescale value from space to 0-1 entry for color map in
color component and then rescale back to original value. Every scaling requires
origin of scaling and scale value - here they are min and range value.

Presented values are randomly choosed without any important rule. My suggestion
is to use something like:

#local X_Max = 1e5;
#local X_Min = -X_Max;

and the same for Y and Z.
You have to remember that outside bounding results can be wrong.
