PWM measurementfrom xbee

Is it possible to measure the PWM from an xbee? I was not able to find much on measuring PWM with basic stamp. Using BS2sx.

I am using an AD 590 on the remote Xbee, the analog signal will go through the Xbees and come out on the local xbee as a PWM.

    What will you be using to generate the PWM? I'm not sure the xbee has the capability to measure microamps, what circuit do you have planned for the sensing end?

    This is the Way it is set up
    .........................4.7K ohms
    +5{---(+ad590 -)
    VVVV--|----} GND

    Sry about the messy drawing, I had got it to work. I sent a signal through the xbee and then measured the PWM by counting, but the change was to small for a change of 10 degrees. Used a lighter to actually see a significant reading on my debug screen.

    anyways I figured out how to do what I wanted. Thx for trying to help me though.
