title: Transmitting Float Values Across Xbee Network
body: <p>I am having trouble transmitting a float across a simple 2 node Xbee Network.</p>
  
  <p>I am aware that the Xbee system transmits packages via bytes, so I can send a char, but I am having trouble sending anything more than that, and I can't seem to find any documentation anywhere.</p>
  
  <p>Here is my current (basic) code.</p>
  
  <p>Sender:</p>
  
  <pre><code>(... appropriate setup...)
  void loop()
  {
    sensorValue = analogRead(analogInPin);
    sensorValueTemp = sensorValue / 9.31; //LM35 measurement into Centigrade
    Serial.print(sensorValueTemp);
    delay(1000);
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Receiver:</p>
  
  <pre><code>(...appropriate setup...)
  void loop() { 
    lcd.setCursor(0, 0);
      if (Serial.available() &gt; 0) {
      lcd.print(incomingByte);
    }
    delay(1000);
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Any hint as to get the float to be transmitted successfully would be great? Or if it is already being transmitted properly, how to read it properly? </p>
  
  <p>Thanks</p>
