According to the docs on XTD:
"If the input number is longer than 8 digits, only the right 8
digits are effective. If the input contains characters other
than 0-9 and A-F, XTD returns 0."
This routine should do what you want:
HEX='0102E84669'
ASCII = ICONV(HEX,'MX0C')
DECIMAL = 0
FOR I = 1 TO LEN(ASCII)
DECIMAL = DECIMAL * 256 + SEQ(ASCII[I,1])
NEXT I
PRINT "DECIMAL = ":DECIMAL
