here's my error

      if (d=='a'){String.toCharArray(num, 11);}

You don't have an instance of the String class called String. What are you trying to do here?

3 
String.toCharArray(num, 11);

What string variable are you taking 11 bytes from ?

Oh, and what do you expect to get from

    while (Serial1.available()<1)
    {
      d=Serial1.read();
      if (d=='a')
      {

While Serial1 has zero bytes available read from it and test which character was received. Will that work I wonder ?
