B: 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.

Decimal		Binary	Hex
0	0000		0
1	0001		1
2	0010		2
3	0011		3
4	0100		4
5	0101		5
6	0110		6
7	0111		7
8	1000		8
9	1001		9
10	1010		A
11	1011		B
12	1100		C
13	1101		D
14	1110		E
15	1111		F
