How to get real data from serial instrument?

Hello,

I am a new user of Labview. For my project I am using serial instrument for temperature measurement. There I get the hexadecimal value. I want to get the real data. Please help me how to decode my hex result to real data. 

(please look into my labview file which is attached and the result is shown in pink box in block diagram).

Thank you

What instrument are you trying to read data from (make and model)?  What is the message/data format (start byte, message length, data format, checksum)?

Hello,

I would read temperature of piston in °C using thermocouple, telemetry transmitter/receiver module (adwitech USB GTW). The messages that are sent from the computer are x byte, but the received messages are always 32 bytes.
