Try this awk script...
Code:
awk -F\/ 'BEGIN {
    a["A"] = 0
    a["C"] = 1
    a["G"] = 2
    a["T"] = 3
}  {
    for (i = 1; i <= NF; i++) {
        s = length($i)
        gsub(".", "& ", $i)
        n = split($i, x, " ")
        for (j = 1; j <= n; j++)
            g[i] += a[x[j]] * (4^(s-j))
        printf("%s%s", g[i] + 1, i < NF ? "," : "")
        prev = g[i] + 1
        g[i] = 0
    }
    printf("%s", NF == 1 ? "," prev "\n" : "\n")
}' ExcelExcerptShort.txt > output
