Converting hex to ascii/decimal

I am writing a bash script to do some parsing on a log and I am running into a problem when it comes to converting only certain sections of the file from hex to ascii or hex to decimal.

Data Example:

Quote:
------------
ip = 10.2.3.4
------------
Hardware= [ 38 30 30 30 ]
Errors= [ 00 a1 ]
Full= [ 63 ]
SW Version= [ 31 2e 38 2e 31 2e 31 30 39 ]
Test= [ 76 ]
------------
ip = 10.2.3.8
------------
Hardware= [ 34 30 30 30 ]
Errors= [ 00 a1 ]
Full= [ 45 ]
SW Version= [ 31 2e 38 2e 31 2e 31 30 39 ]
Test= [ 76 ]
The hex values after Hardware and SW Version I need to convert from Hex to ASCII and the Errors, Full, Test values I need to convert from hex to decimal.

The output should look like the following:

Quote:
------------
ip = 10.2.3.4
------------
Hardware= [ 8000 ]
Errors= [ 161 ]
Full= [ 99 ]
SW Version= [ 1.8.1.109]
Test= [ 118 ]
------------
ip = 10.2.3.8
------------
Hardware= [ 4000]
Errors= [ 161 ]
Full= [ 69 ]
SW Version= [ 1.8.1.109 ]
Test= [ 118 ]
Thanks for any help!

ATF-SH(1)						    BSD General Commands Manual 						 ATF-SH(1)

NAME
atf-sh [-s shell] -- interpreter for shell-based test programs SYNOPSIS
atf-sh script DESCRIPTION
atf-sh is an interpreter that runs the test program given in script after loading the atf-sh(3) library. atf-sh is not a real interpreter though: it is just a wrapper around the system-wide shell defined by ATF_SHELL. atf-sh executes the inter- preter, loads the atf-sh(3) library and then runs the script. You must consider atf-sh to be a POSIX shell by default and thus should not use any non-standard extensions. The following options are available: -s shell Specifies the shell to use instead of the value provided by ATF_SHELL. ENVIRONMENT
ATF_LIBEXECDIR Overrides the builtin directory where atf-sh is located. Should not be overridden other than for testing purposes. ATF_PKGDATADIR Overrides the builtin directory where libatf-sh.subr is located. Should not be overridden other than for testing purposes. ATF_SHELL Path to the system shell to be used in the generated scripts. Scripts must not rely on this variable being set to select a specific interpreter. EXAMPLES
Scripts using atf-sh(3) should start with: #! /usr/bin/env atf-sh Alternatively, if you want to explicitly choose a shell interpreter, you cannot rely on env(1) to find atf-sh. Instead, you have to hardcode the path to atf-sh in the script and then use the -s option afterwards as a single parameter: #! /path/to/bin/atf-sh -s/bin/bash ENVIRONMENT
ATF_SHELL Path to the system shell to be used in the generated scripts. SEE ALSO
atf-sh(3) BSD
