Hi,
I'm afraid, it won't go as the manual states: "The SSP module in I2C mode
fully implements all slave functions, " and master functions are hardly
supported. All applications I have ever seend does it by software. The one
exception I know the new 16F87x generation, where master mode is also
fully implemented, Mchip says.

I hope, this helps.

Imre
