Impossible. The hex and ascii keys are different lengths.
Type of key Length (chars)
64 bit ASCII 5
54 bit Hex 10
128 bit ASCII 13
128 bit Hex 26
Your PEG-T55 is determining whether the key is Hex or ASCII by the
length of the key, not by its contents. The key should be 10 or 26
characters long, which will always be Hex. If it's 5 or 13 characters
long, it's always ASCII, no matter what characters you use.
