Convert that from binary to decimal (use Windows calculator) and get a mask of 85.

For those who enjoy math, the conversion from binary (base 2) to decimal (base 10) works out like this:

1010101 = 1*2^0 + 0*2^1 + 1*2^2 + 0*2^3 + 1*2^4 + 0*2^5 + 1*2^6
        =   1   +   0   +   4   +   0   +   16  +   0   +   64
        = 85
