 All commands are case-sensitive. Trailing whitespace (e.g., `NULL`, `CR`, etc.) are ignored. The space between a command keyword and the parameters is mandatory. All commands are case-sensitive. Trailing whitespace (e.g., `NULL`, `CR`, etc.) are ignored. The space between a command keyword and the parameters is mandatory.
 +
 +Move commands return ''<movename> BEGIN'' upon start, and '' <movename> END'' upon completion. If the move is set to return home after completion (all firmware moves are), then it will be immediately followed by a ''TAILHM BEGIN'' and a ''TAILHM END'' as well.
 +
 +A command will return ''LOWBATT'' and reject the command if the battery is less than 10%. ''ERR'' will be returned if the command can't be parsed or otherwise executed.
 +
 +A new command that is received before the currently executing command is finished will immediately end the current command and start the new one.
