Barbara;
This being a C function it expects a parm to be passed by value. 
If the C function prototype looks like this:

function(float *, .... ) 

Then you must pass a pointer to a float variable

If it looks like this:

function(float, .....

Then you must pass the float variable.

Eric, while the others' suggestion of changing the prototype to be a
pointer and passing *NULL will work, I think it's better to prototype it
as a float, with OPTIONS(*OMIT), and then pass *OMIT for null.
