You haven't got enough zeros on the mask for the sign bit (it should be 0x8000000000000000) but the more fundamental problem is that the max integer value in js is 2^53-1 so you can't turn it into a 64 bit integer and then extract the sign and exponent. You will have to extract the sign and exponent from the first word and then build the mantissa up from the rest of the first word and the other three.

Unless the algorithm is for academic interest... why not use the built in Buffer functions ? readDoubleBE - [https://nodejs.org/docs/latest-v8.x/api/buffer.html#buffer\_buf\_readdoublebe\_offset\_noassert](https://nodejs.org/docs/latest-v8.x/api/buffer.html#buffer_buf_readdoublebe_offset_noassert)

I cant seem to get it to work. I'm trying to read a USB Pressure Sensor from Omega.  
Any Suggestions?

Here is one of the buffers. It should be around 14 PSIG

[170,59,160,31,199,62]

You are right! They snt me the wrong sensor. it was to be PSIA - Absolute but they sent me PSIG - Gauge.

Thank you. Now to get a $600.00 sensor swapped.... Ugh

Had to fix the function to guarantee 6 bytes

var buf = Buffer.from([0x0,0x0,0x0,0x0,0x0,0x0]);  
buf = msg.payload;  
msg.payload = buf.readFloatLE(2);  
return msg

That will have absolutely no effect since on the next line you overwright buf.

You can’t stop it. You can check the length and look for the correct start byte or just reject any of incorrect length

If you end up with a buffer five long then that means there were only five in msg.payload.

Fixed with a delay acting as a message limiter to the dashboard, and log the data as CVS file for high speed capture for millisec times

I also had to add a function to trim spurious readings.

Using this sensor
