This is a well documented (if somewhat dense) standard. Go to the official docs, rather than trying to reverse engineer it. I've read the docs, and you'll never figure it out. There's some odd stuff in BER. That's why so many vendors have so much trouble decoding it safely.
How many vendors tried to implement BER and related stuff without reading the 'Implementors Workshop' documents (or whatever they called the errata and explanations and "We've decided to read the unclear standard THIS way" stuff)?
