How to convert numerical values to signed 16 Bit integer representation.

Hi Team,

I have these two values:

• Min value: 0xEECB
• Max Value: 0xF1EC

When I create them as variables in TestStand they are interpreted as 61131 and 61932 respectively, but their true nature is that of signed 16 bit integers, and should be interpreted as -4,405 and -3,604.

How do I make it so my two variables (Locals.minValue and Locals.maxValue) are interpreted correctly?
