Appendix E: Binary to Hexadecimal Conversions

Many of the unit's configuration procedures require you to assemble a series of options (represented as bits) into a complete command (represented as a byte).

The resulting binary value must be converted to a hexadecimal representation.

Use this chapter to learn to convert binary values to hexadecimals or to look up hexadecimal values in the tables of configuration options. The tables include:

Command Mode (serial string sign-on message)

AES Keys

Converting Binary to Hexadecimal

Following are two simple ways to convert binary numbers to hexadecimal notation.

Conversion Table

Hexadecimal digits have values ranging from 0 to F, which are represented as 0-9, A (for 10), B (for 11), etc. To convert a binary value (for example, 0100 1100) to a hexadecimal representation, treat the upper and lower four bits separately to produce a two- digit hexadecimal number (in this case, 4C). Use the following table to convert values from binary to hexadecimal.

Scientific Calculator

Another simple way to convert binary to hexadecimal is to use a scientific calculator, such as the one available on the Windows operating systems. For example:

1.On the Windows Start menu, click Programs -> Accessories -> Calculator.

2.On the View menu, select Scientific. The scientific calculator appears.

3.Click Bin (Binary), and type the number you want to convert.
