Do you have a sample capture file to test it against?  The only ones I have 
with ISUP don't have the data tag you're exporting.

There are some others out there - some a superset of Roberto's, some completely 
different.  In your particular case I don't think you needed it - you can 
convert a number to a little-endian 2-byte/short value with plain Lua, and you 
can just write binary directly to a file too.

For example instead of this:

    local len = len_number-16
    if(1==debug) then
        print("isup len:", len)
    end
    -- use the i-th isup payload
    len_bin = lib.pack('<H', len)
    for b in string.gfind(len_bin, ".") do
        file:write(b)
    end

Do this:

    local len = len_number-16
    file:write( string.char(len % 256, math.floor(len / 256)) )
