Then there is one thing I do not understand. If you take a look in the
datasheets for the 16C62A it says that the SSP can be configured as I2C
firmware controlled Master mode (SSPCON Register). Does firmware mean that
you have to implement it in software?? Do anybody have the code or some
documentation for a I2C Master?? There is no documentation for the code at
Microchip's webpage, so it's not easy to figure out the way they do it!!

You can't use the SSP in Mastermode ! You have to implement it in software
instead. For example code have a look at the microchip webpage.
