(I use the maxpve value returned from > i1pro_getmisc(): 0xfa00) Hi Klaus, I must admit that I can't assess this piece of code, since I don't know how rval is supposed to be encoded. The code suggests that we're dealing with an asymmetric, signed 16-bit encoding, which can encode more positive than negative numbers (given the actual maxvpe value of 0xfa00). Granted that this assumption is correct, I'm wondering, though, whether it is really an "overflow" if negative numbers are returned, or whether these are still valid readings (albeit negative ones).
