Matlab, Arduino, and XBee: does it work?

Hi! I have already tried using an Arduino Uno via Matlab and it works fine.

I would now like to go wireless, and I was considering using a pair of XBees. Has anybody tried and succeeded?

I have done extensive research on the Internet, but I don't find a decisive answer. I would like to know if everything works smoothly (as if USB and Wireless connections were the same thing), or if there are some tricks/adjustments to be done.

Thanks.

I have tried this combination for one of my hobby projects. The only thing to take care would be to configure the xbee pair first for communicating with each other (In most of the cases the pair should work without needing to be configured but if you are using a XBEE pro or different series you should probably do it through the XCTU software that Digi provides )
