I am trying to connect emoncms by mamba shields. How is the format of the communication between Raspberry pi and Xbee, so I can morph a arduino as a Xbee.

Re: Conecting emoncms by PLC
I think you might need to explain in more detail what you are trying to achieve.
By default the Openenergymonitor doesn't use Xbee ( although if you google "XBee openenergymonitor" ) you will find out how to use Xbee to go from the wirelessnode to a basestation, from work that was done historically.
The most common setup uses an arduino clone and a RFM12 with the jeelib protocol to broadcast to a RFM12Pi board connected to a Pi. The Pi can either host emoncms or send it to another server. This is done using a http string with the data in either csv or json format all described within the api help pages in emoncms.
