Sea-Bird recently released a python package for reading and processing their instrument data:

It seems like this could be used for reading hex files.

Thanks @jessecusack - I did not know about this! I had a quick look and their package still looks quite rudimentary but maybe good to use as backend in the future if they develop this further.

The seabirdscientific package sadly currently only supports SBE 37 and SBE 19plus V2, which after a quick look at the instrument_data.py are not compatible with the SBE 9. For example the voltage words are 16bit (4 hex) long, while in the SBE 9 they are 3 (or 6 because they always have to be in pairs).
