Date Format, 2 + 2 bytes

[horseshoe7]

I'm parsing the data from some of the BTLE Characteristics, and am stumped with this (from BTLE Spec: http://www.concept2.com/files/pdf/us/mo ... nition.pdf)

Data bytes packed as follows:
Log Entry Date Lo,
Log Entry Date Hi,
Log Entry Time Lo,
Log Entry Time Hi,

How am I supposed to parse this? What's the format? It doesn't seem to be UNIX, nor MSDOS. Does anyone know??

If it works like the old *LCB files then it's a modified version of BCD

Code: Select all

   DateH     DateL     TimeH    TimeL
 00011101 10010100   00010000 00001001 
 0001110 11001 0100  000 10000 0000 1001 
     14   25    4        16    0    9

Thanks that's exactly how it works!!

Took me a while with all the bit-shifting nonsense, but I finally got it parsed.
