Hi everybody,
I've bought a weatherstation sensor from Pearl branded as infactory wireless sensor for FWS-686 & FWS-665. It didn't work out of the box with pilight, but I've reverse engineered the protocol to some extend.
I've used the tfa source code to make some new draft protocol code. That's why I just renamed every occurrence of tfa to tfa2. Here is the tfa2.c:
It works so far, but up to now, I've only found out the meaning of some of the bits sent by the sensor, but not all.
Following, I post a couple of bit-streams from the sensor with corresponding temperature and humidity values. The last 3 digit is the long footer pulse.
I assume, that the first 8 bits are the id, since they change whenever I put out the batteries.
After that, there are 8 bits, I have no clue about. They change every telegram seemingly random, so it could be a checksum. On the other hand, Pearl claims, that this sensor also measures the pressure. While I actually doubt it, it could have to do something with that.
The next 8 bits represent the temperature+90.0°F in Fahrenheit as a binary number with one decimal place, so you need to subtract 90.0°F from it.
After that there are 8 bits for the humidity, divided in 2 groups of 4, each one presenting one digit of the decimal value in binary.
The next two bits could be the battery state.
The last two bits represent the channel 1-3, which can be selected by a switch.
Okay, I now need your help in deciphering the second group of 8 bits and further more, I need some hints as to how I get the code into a style, that it could appear in the official pilight version, and how to get it there.
Since this is my first post in this forum, please let me know, if I've violated some rules or whatever.
Cheers

). When mine arrives I'll open it up and have a look. But you're probably right that the sensor is only in the station itself.
