Ipmitool keys off of the 'Sensor Units 1' field (bits 6-7) in type 1 records to determine if the reading is analog based. Looks to me as though the SDR for these sensors probably has both of these bits turned on. If that is the case, the reading returned from Get Sensor Reading command (resp data byte 2) should be ignored. I suspect that the SDR is not set up properly.
