HEX to ASCII

[Eric Paulin]

Hello everyone,

this is a stupid question......

How do I convert an HEX code to an ASCII code in labview? The device sends
me a CAN message with the data that I need but it sends it to me in an HEX
code. After I've received the message, I need to convert the HEX code to
an ASCII code.

ex : the first byte of data contains the HEX code 31, now I need to convert
it to the ASCII code which is 1, and so on with whatever code I receive.

I've looked everywhere in labview but I can't find what I want to do.

Thx

Eric it's simple. Most likely you receive your data in a string.
Right-click on this string indicator and choose normal/hex display.
If you get bytes in U8 array(?), wire it to
byte array to string
function and see your "1" in a string indicator as an ASCII symbol.
