How do I interface a pic24hj32gp202 to Xbee module? I will be sending data from the pic wirelessly to a pc with the use of XBEE USB Explorer. Does any one know how I setup the circuit with the pic and Xbee? And what do I need component wise? I am new to XBEE.

The XBEE USB Explorer from Sparkfun is a USB interface, it lacks the actual XBEE board, so you need one to piggy back on top of it. Then you need a second XBEE to sit with your PIC.

The XBEE Module data sheet (see 2.1.1) shows a simple serial data scheme such as any UART uses.

Rich (BB code):
Line Name   PIC 

    DI          TX
(not) CTS   (any) (input pin)
    DO         RX
(not) RTS   (any) (output pin)
