mmunic194:
For example: if I send "<1><2><3>" over serial monitor, how could I store that in to variables like x=1, y=2, z=3?
It would be possible, but not so easy because the code will treat each value as the start of a new set of data.
But the demo code does the same thing using <1,2,3> so why not use that system?
Perhaps I don't understand what you want to do?
