I think your VI works and if I understand what your input data looks like and the output that you want is, does it?I really can't see a better way. Does it not work for what you want? What form is the actual data in as you receive it? (not how it is displayed by the display setting of the string control) You have the string control set the “Hex display” and that may be confusing some of us as to what the actual input data is.
And what you want your output to look like. Do you get a “stream” of bytes that are the actual numbers in the form of a string?or Do you get a “string” of ASCII char that represent numbers?
These are two different things, but may look alike depending on the display setting of your controls are set.
 Changing the display mode of a control or indicator does not change the under lying data. It only changes the way your eye “see” it, not how LabVIEW “sees” it.  We need to know what your raw input string looks like.
tbob's snipit assume your data is one way and your VI assumes another.
