Example: Receive analog data

This section demonstrates how to create an XBee sensor network. Since the kit does not contain a real sensor, you will simulate an analog sensor with the potentiometer of the XBee Grove Development Board.

Note If you have a Grove sensor, you can connect it to the board for a more realistic example of a sensor network.

XBee B, where the sensor is connected, will be the sender. This XBee will transmit the value of the potentiometer to XBee A, the receiver, every five seconds.

Note Several steps contain videos to help you successfully complete the example. If you get stuck, go to Troubleshooting.
