converting hex into a string of decimal

[hito88]

Hi all,

I am using Labview to communicate with accelerometer. I need to convert ASCII to decimal value. However, my application samples for labview is only capable to convert ASCII to HEX value which is pretty much useless as raw data.

How to i convert HEX into a string of decimal using type cast or is there any better way to do it?  What does the 'type' indicate?

Use the Number to String function(s) from that sub-pallette present inside the Strings pallette to achieve what you want.

You need something like here. Give example what you want exactly.

Hi Use ''Hexadecimal String To Number'' to convert Hex Value into Integer number\

I think this will work. If not use 'Number To Decimal String" after converting Hex into number.

Straight from LV Help...

"type is the data type to which you want to convert the data. Wire any constant or control to type to set the data type to which you want to convert the data. LabVIEW ignores any data in the constant or control you wire to type."
