data file about rtl_433 HOT 5 CLOSED

Run with -t, and open the resulting files with 8 bit stereo in audacity, raw mode. Than you can see the waveform. You can then load stuff into octave also and play around with various filters.

Regarding the temperature, it is most likely a 12bit value scaled by 10 and maybe in degrees of Fahrenheit.

Anyway, put in the sensor in the freezer and log the temperature vs bits, then do the same for the oven (sane temperatures). This should locate the max and min bits. Together with values between it should be easy to figure out the possible scaling.

Thanks a lot. I think I managed to decode it, it's 10bit value. Btw it's Imagintronix IM200 wireless sensor, for £6 of ebay.
example output:
[00] {48} 00 cd bf f7 00 d9 00 : 00000000 11001101 10111111 11110111 00000000 11011001 00000000
[01] {48} 00 cd bf f7 00 d9 00 : 00000000 11001101 10111111 11110111 00000000 11011001 00000000

there is only 5 bytes of real data: 11001101 10111111 11110111 00000000 11011001
5th byte seems some kind of CRC
4th byte I always get only zeros so I'm guessing it allocated for humidity etc but this sensor doesn't have that so it's not used.
3rd byte changes after battery change. probably to identify each sensor.

6 first bits from 1 byte never change, no matter what, for all the sensors (I have 3), must be manufacturers ID
2 last bits of the 1st byte and 2nd byte make up temperature data part. I took that 10bits binary sequence, converted to decimal value and worked out formula that seem to work perfectly:
T(Celsius)=(1023-400-x)/10
or
T=(623-x)/10
where x is value of 10bit data part.

for example:
110011(01 10111111) 11110111 00000000 11011001
x=0110111111=447
(623-447)/10=17.6

ps. I can explain in detail how did I come to this if anybody want to hear the boring stuff.

now I just need to figure out battery bit and CRC part..

We now have the superior sigrok output and -A analyzer for looking at unknown signals. Reopen with signal samples if you still need help. Closing issue.
