Steve,

Thanks for the reply. I have used I2C stuff with PICbasic pro before and the display is no problem. I must not be sending it the right commands. As I understand it, with PBP pro which has the built in I2C commands, all I should have to do is something like:

I2CRead sda,scl,%11010000,$0,[seconds]

in order to retrieve the seconds data, but I ain't getting it. I can read and set the time from another uC, so I'm pretty sure I have the hardware connected correctly.

Thanks!

Jonathan
