The whole list of available remote command is available for download at

What you need is command "$destination". First you have to configure remote communication (I suppose TCP and localhost, i.e. 127.0.0.1, port 4242). Alternative is serial communication over COM port. Let me know if you have any trouble.

Dim host As IPAddress = Nothing
Dim mySock As Socket = Nothing
Try
If Not IPAddress.TryParse("127.0.0.1", host) Then
MessageBox.Show("Indirizzo non valido")
Exit Sub
End If
Dim ep As IPEndPoint = New IPEndPoint(host, Integer.Parse(4242))
mySock = New Socket(AddressFamily.InterNetwork, SocketType.Stream, ProtocolType.Tcp)
mySock.Connect(ep)
'
If mySock.Connected Then
mySock.Send(Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes("$destination=45.72813,8.98105;navigate"))
End If
Catch ex As Exception
MessageBox.Show(ex.Message)
End Try

Hello Antonio,
I do not know Visual Basic, but in Python it is:
from telnetlib import Telnet
IP = "127.0.0.1"
PORT = "4242"
TIMEOUT = 2.0 # wait for response in seconds
telnet = Telnet( IP, PORT )
telnet.write("$destination=45.72813,8.98105;navigate\n" )
data = telnet.read_until( "\n", TIMEOUT )
print data
telnet.close()
Howdy, Stranger!
