The output of the string to number is an I64 data type (signed number made up of 64 bits)

You need for your mA value to be a U16 number to get the output in your array constant.

Have a look at the attached

Personally, I would rather use an array constant for the entire command and then use Replace Array Subset to create the command data.

Other advice:

Whenever you are not using the Decimal format for integers, show the radix (right-click, Visible Items->Radix).  This will tell you what format the integer is in.  Then you won't be guessing if 12 was actually 18 (12 hex) or 12 (12 decimal) or even 10 (12 octal).
