16 bit CRC in JAVA. WOE !

I'm writing a Java interface to the CFA633. The serial comms is using Sun's JavaCOMM API.

I have everything working except the 16bit CRC ....

I have a serial port monitor on to see what the 633 service is sending vs. what I am sending. I cannot get past the first packet.

The 633 monitor sends a 00 00 47 0F to the LCD. (I presume this is a Ping with zero data)

I also trying to send the same. BUT I simply cannot work out from your lookup table where you are getting the 470F from. I spotted the ~ but even if I try to ~ my value (which is using the 0xFFFF seed) I cannot see the code in the table.

I also tried the undocumented CRC16 function in Java but it also returns different values.

I tried porting the C code but I cannot get the value to come out correctly. It stays in the right range but it's not the right value.

:(

Thanks Norm. It will be good to compare for sure.

I have put mine on sourceforge already although as yet have not released it.

So if you could send it, it would be very much appreciated as I'm still not 100% sure all is well.

Cheers
