Rolf, First, since the length field has an operator, does it occupy the first bit of sequence PMAP? if so, I would like to know why pmap bit 5 is for 271. For 271, exponent=0(not -2) (copy not default) mantissa=2 => 2*10^0 = 2 it is correct if I decode it in such way. However, the operator of exponent is copy , not default. In this situation, PMAP bit is 0 and it is optional, that means the exp. is absent, right? BTW, this is the output for the first msg provided by swx 8=FIXT.1.1 35=X 1128=7 49=SWXGROUP-MDI.M01 56=SWXGROUP-MDC 34=10576 97=N 52=20080623-03:55:01.799 1021=1 268=1 279=0 269=0 48=CH0003671440 22=4 271=2 273=03:45:00.003 336=ABQ5 346=1 6566=0 83=1 Michael > Michael, > > your decoding up to 270 looks alright if I have understood the context > correctly. > > For 271 (field 5 in the sequence), pmap bit 5 is 0 so the wire > representation 0x82 corresponds to: exponent=-2 (default) mantissa=2 > => 2*10^-2? > > 270=NULL followed by 271=2*10^-2 don't make much sense though? > > I suggest you contact SWX for assistance on this.
