Hi there,

What command exactly do you send to the serial?

In your code, go to line where you put commander.add function and check the character you put there.  
For example with a line like this:

```auto
  // add target command T
  command.add('T', doTarget, "target angle");

```

Then to set the target angle, you type “T90” to set the angle. If you type just the number, it has no idea what parameter you are addressing.

Here is more information on this interface:
