If you just want to transmit the *numeric* *value*, just send the number.
You don't need to convert it to hex. A number is the same no matter what
base it is in.
If you do actually have to send a *string* with the hex representation of
a number in it, you'll need to use whatever command there is for sending
strings, or send it one character at a time manually if there isn't one
(which I doubt).
