I have different hexadecimal data are coming and stored into an integer type register.
When I use fprint I can see the following:
0x3076
0x307c
.
.
.
However, I would like to show a Decimal version of above-mention Hex data as follows.
12406
12412
.
.
.
In theory, let's say for the first value you do the following to convert it to decimal.
(6* 16^0)+(7 * 16^1)+(0*16^2)+(3*16^3)=6 + 112+ 0 + 12288 = 12406
So IF I have the character-based version of "0x3076" and also, IF I am able to get each single characters 6 - 7 - 0 - 3, I can calculate the decimal amount!
So, I decided to divide "3076" by 1000. I was expected to get 3, but I got TWO characters instead! however, if I was able to get 3 for the remainder of "307c" I am not able to get "C". If it was decimal this might work not hex!
Also, I tried "strtol
" command. As I use Cygwin to compile my code, I am not sure where the error is! What did I do wrong?
So, I just need to find a way to get EACH SINGLE character out of the HEX data!
Any idea please?
P.S.
Here is my code in order to help you to give me an idea.
int get_readings(int source, int phase, int max_tries)
{
uint8_t buf[MAX_IEC1107_MSG_BODY];
uint8_t inbuf[MAX_IEC1107_MSG_BODY];
int inlen;
uint8_t *s;
int32_t value;
int status;
double voltage;
double current;
double active_power;
double reactive_power;
double apparent_power;
double power_factor;
double frequency;
s = buf;
*s++ = HOST_CMD_GET_READINGS_PHASE_1 + phase;
*s++ = 0x00;
if (max_tries != 1)
meter_set_max_tries(&emeter[source].meter_msg, max_tries);
if (meter_exchange(&emeter[source].meter_msg, buf, 2, inbuf, &inlen)
&&
inbuf[1] != 0xFF)
{
emeter[source].no_response = FALSE;
s = inbuf;
/* Get current readings */
value = (s[3] << 8) | s[2];
fprint(stderr, "value:" %p\n, value); // this give me HEX code
