The 020002 format originated in the early 2000s for transmitting sensor packets over low‑bandwidth serial links. Its binary layout is deliberately compact:
| Byte Offset | Length (bytes) | Meaning |
|-------------|----------------|---------|
| 0‑1         | 2              | Message ID (big‑endian) |
| 2‑3         | 2              | Payload length (N) |
| 4‑(N+3)     | N              | Payload (variable‑type fields) |
| N+4‑N+7     | 4              | CRC‑32 (little‑endian) | ✅ Best for manual single-file conversion – visual
The payload consists of a series of type‑length‑value (TLV) records, each beginning with a 1‑byte type identifier, followed by a 2‑byte length, and then the value bytes. This structure makes the format self‑describing but also non‑trivial to parse efficiently without a dedicated state machine.
