Concatenate Elements of a 1D array

Hello,

Fairly simple question I'm just looking for an efficient way to do it.

I have a 1D array of HEX values and I would like to be able to combine 2 elements into 1 through out the whole array.

Ex: elements[0] and element[1] become element[0]. element[2] and [3] become element[1] etc.

 

EDIT:

I have attached an image to show what I am doing. I take a string, convert to hex and then into a 1D array. But ultimately I need to convert 2 ascii character into 1 hex! As of right now I have 1 ascii gets converted into 1 hex.

 

Thank you!

Decimate1DArray followed by JoinNumbers… (Or any other operation you would like to do, it's not quite clear from your question!)

Best regards,

It would help us if you gave a very clear example of the data coming in and what you want as an output.  Doing it with a VI would be the best (set the example data values as the default before saving).

GerdW already made this point, but here you have it illustrated in vi snippets.

Hmm, I have a question considering your earlier question and this one, the strings you are reading, which do they look more like?

A) "0F AA 12 45 E4"

B) " !51 @#$@% ar12 12355"

Hello,

Thank you for the visual, that makes a lot of sense!

It almost works, my first 2 elements are 49, and 100, but when they get combined it becomes 12645... but I want it to be "49100" any ideas?

 

Thank you.

Please help us help you by posting a VI with your data in it.

 

"100" hex will not fit in a U8 so please post a vi with your data and what you think it should be.

Your various posts are not self consistant.

 

Post a VI wi the data you have and the results you expect.

 

Our assistance is limited by your willingness to cooperate.
