Convert Hexadecimal String to Characters in LabVIEW

[Will_S.]

Overview:

This example takes an input string in the Normal mode that should be in Hexadecimal mode, and converts it to show the characters properly.

This example is useful because converts all Hexadecimal Codes to Characters. Writting these Hexadecimal Codes in a control and running the VI, it outputs the converted Characters.

Description:

Inputs a string and parses through each backlash (\) with a search, splitting the string further, and using a type cast.  Repeats with a while loop until all slash codes have been converted.

Requirements

LabVIEW 2012 (or compatible)

Steps to Implement or Execute Code

1. The ‘Input String’ has some preset hex values, or you can edit this string control to put in new values.
2. Run the VI
3. String with Specials will display the resulting ASCII characters
