Hi bernhard,

serial.read() read a single byte.  
read the [Serial input basics by Robin2](https://forum.arduino.cc/t/serial-input-basics-updated/382007)

best regards Stefan  
Be the change you want to see in the world

This notion of be the change you want to see in the world does 3 powerful things when we adopt it:  
It stops us from judging others;  
It replaces complaining about others with reflection on self;  
It stirs us into taking action within the only thing in the world over which we have any control: ourselves.
