F: Binary to Hex Conversion
Many of the device server’s configuration procedures require you to assemble a series of options
(represented as bits) into a complete command (represented as a byte). The resulting binary
value must be converted to a hexadecimal representation.
Converting Binary to Hexadecimal
The following are two simple ways to convert binary numbers to hexadecimals.
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, 0010 0011) to a hexadecimal representation,
the upper and lower four bits are treated separately, resulting in a two-digit hexadecimal number
(in this case, 4C).
Use the following table to convert values from binary to hexadecimal.

Scientific Calculator
Another simple way to convert binary to hexadecimals is to use a scientific calculator, such as the
one available on Windows’ operating systems. For example:
1. On the Windows’ Start menu, click Programs

