How to use

To decode Codec8 (test out in .NET Fiddle)

using Codec8;

string input = "000000000000003608010000016B40D8EA30010000000000000000000000000000000105021503010101425E0F01F10000601A014E0000000000000000010000C7CF";
(GenericDecodeResult result, object valueOrError) = Codec8Decoder.ParseHexadecimalString(input);
if (result == GenericDecodeResult.SuccessCodec8)
{
    Codec8Frame frame = (Codec8Frame)valueOrError;
}

To decode Codec8 Extended (test out in .NET Fiddle)

using Codec8;

string input = "000000000000004A8E010000016B412CEE000100000000000000000000000000000000010005000100010100010011001D00010010015E2C880002000B000000003544C87A000E000000001DD7E06A00000100002994";
(GenericDecodeResult result, object valueOrError) = Codec8ExtendedDecoder.ParseHexadecimalString(input);
if (result == GenericDecodeResult.SuccessCodec8Extended)
{
    Codec8ExtendedFrame frame = (Codec8ExtendedFrame)valueOrError;
}

If you don't know what kind of data you have, you can use generic decoder

using Codec8;

string input = "000000000000004A8E010000016B412CEE000100000000000000000000000000000000010005000100010100010011001D00010010015E2C880002000B000000003544C87A000E000000001DD7E06A00000100002994";
(GenericDecodeResult result, object valueOrError) = GenericDecoder.ParseHexadecimalString(input);
if (result == GenericDecodeResult.SuccessCodec8)
{
    Codec8Frame frame = (Codec8Frame)valueOrError;
}
else if (result == GenericDecodeResult.SuccessCodec8Extended)
{
    Codec8ExtendedFrame frame = (Codec8ExtendedFrame)valueOrError;
}
else
{
    Console.Writeline($"Expected success, but got: {valueOrError}");
}
