For the motor, the protocol will be as follows:

    s<space><pwm_value_of_motor_1><space><pwm_value_of_motor_2>

r<space> 

We can check the serial values from the LaunchPad using a command line tool called miniterm.py. This tool can view the serial data coming from a device. This script is already installed with the python-serial package, which is installed along with the rosserial-python Debian package. The following command will display the serial values from the robot controller:

    $ miniterm.py /dev/ttyACM0 115200

We will get values like the following screenshot:
