So yep working now! So ill put the code here, messy as it is, but its an alarm mask, so its not then being used in calculation...
B4X:
Sub Process_Globals
    'Dim conv As ByteConverter
   
End Sub
Sub SuffixSN (myName As String, mySN As Int) As String
    Return myName & " " & NumberFormat2(mySN,8,0,0,False)
End Sub
Sub BinaryToHex (Binary As String) As String
    AlarmActive
    Binary = AlarmActive
    Do While Binary.Length Mod 4 <> 0
        Binary = "0" & Binary
    Loop
    Dim res As StringBuilder
    Dim Returner As String
    res.Initialize
    For i = 0 To Binary.Length - 1 Step 4
        res.Append(Bit.ToHexString(Bit.And(0xf, Bit.ParseInt(Binary.SubString2(i, i + 4), 2))))
    Next
    'Log(res.ToString)
    Returner = res.ToString
    'Returner = Returner & "00"
    Returner = "0x" & Returner
    Log(Returner)
    Return Returner
End Sub
Sub AlarmActive As String
    If Not(Main.sql1.IsInitialized) Then
        Log("SQL1 Failed")
        'Return
    End If
'    Dim a As Int
'    Dim RS As ResultSet = Main.sql1.ExecQuery("SELECT * FROM DeviceStatus INNER JOIN DeviceLive ON DeviceStatus.DeviceSN = DeviceLive.DeviceSN ")
'    Do While RS.NextRow
'       
'        a = a + 1
'    Loop
    Dim RS As ResultSet = Main.sql1.ExecQuery("SELECT * FROM DTDevice ORDER BY DeviceSN DESC") 'SELECT * FROM Device INNER JOIN DTDevice ON Device.DeviceSN = DTDevice.DeviceSN
    Dim i As Int
    Dim AlMask As String
    AlMask = ""
'    Dim count As Int
'    count = 0
    i = 0
    Do While RS.NextRow
        i = i + 1
       
        If RS.GetInt("E3Status")  < "4" Then
            AlMask = AlMask & "0000"
    '        Log("0000")
        Else If RS.GetInt("E3Status") = "4" Then
            AlMask = AlMask & "0001"
    '        Log("0001")
        Else If RS.GetInt("E3Status") = "5" Then
            AlMask = AlMask & "0010"
    '        Log("0010")
        Else If RS.GetInt("E3Status") = "6" Then
            AlMask = AlMask & "0100"
    '        Log("0100")
        Else if RS.GetInt("E3Status") = "7" Then
            AlMask = AlMask & "1000"
    '        Log("1000")
        Else
            Log("error")
            Log(RS.GetInt("EmStatus"))
        End If
'        Log("DevSN; " & RS.GetInt("DeviceSN") &  "   E3Status; " & RS.GetInt("E3Status"))
    Loop
'        Log(AlMask)
    AlMask = AlMask & "00000000"
    Return  AlMask
End Sub

Nut again thankyou for bearing with me!
