    When calculating the required span and zero is indicated by -1 and over-range by 1. If the settings the decimal point should be ignored. display range is not exceeded, the BA304ND will produce accurate readings outside the 4/20mA current range. Although not guaranteed, most BA304ND indicators will operate between 3 and 25mA.
