Many of the unit’s configuration procedures require assembling a series of options
(represented as bits) into a complete command (represented as a byte). Con vert the resulting
binary value to a hexadecimal representation.
Converting Binary to Hexadecimal
Following are two simple ways to convert binary numbers to hexadecim als.
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 hex adecimal
representation, the upper and lower four bits are treated separately, resu lting in a two-digit
hexadecimal number (in this case, 4C). Use the following table to co nvert values from binary
to hexadecimal.
