Re: [oopic] using oDDELink

Yes,

You can talk to the ooPIC over the DDELink (network) port and it will
look like a 256 byte EEPROM in terms of addressing. An easier way to do
this is to talk to it over the serial link using SCP commands, they are
WAY easier to do than the arcane bit masking that you'll have to do if
you use the I2C link to the ooPIC.

BTW, why are you using the ancient '877A? If I were you I would use a
newer 18F part. They are cheaper, faster and easier to do. Also, you
can use the Microchip educators version of C18 to write code to it.
