T = str2num(get(handles.TM,'string'));
TM is a edit text in guide, but if TM doesn't have anything what value has? is for do the next:
T = str2num(get(handles.TM,'string'));

T=0.001;

No, you need to use isempty.
if isempty(T)
T = 0.001;
end
Note that if you use str2double instead, you'll get NaN and can use isnan to test.

T = str2double(get(handles.TM, 'string'));
if isnan(T); T = 0.001; end;
Notice str2double() instead of str2num(): this is more secure and more predictable.
