String value '7363733330323631' cannot more than 9.

Hi there,
I will try to use smsLib in our application. smsLib has a dependency to
jsmpp2.1.0. If I try to send a short message with smsLib, I have to insert 
userId and password to and specific method see below:

JSMPPGateway gateway = new JSMPPGateway("smppcon", "11.22.33.44", 4200, new 
BindAttributes("userId", "password", "", BindType.TRANSMITTER));

in this case I have to insert userId and password as String but it does
not work because our smsc server is expecting hex code. Here is an example:

Application: 00 00 00 24 00 00 00 01 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 userId 00password 00 
004 00 00 00
SMSC: 00 00 00 24 00 00 00 09 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 01 35 30 30 35 33 00 69 41 
4E 35 30 30 35 33 00 00 34 00 00 00

so I tried to convert String to hex and insert it to that method as argument 
but every time I got an exception
for jsmpp like this.

java.io.IOException: Failed sending bind since some string parameter area 
invalid : C-Octet String value '7363733330323631' cannot more than 9. Actual 
length of string is 16

        at org.smslib.Service$1Starter.run(Service.java:277)

that means smpp is expecting just password in hex which are not longer than 9. 
I want to know why did you
implement this validation of length and how can I use your lib with out 
modifying it.

thank you for your time and hesitation
