PIC18F452 and RTC(DS1307) not working via I2C

I just configure the PWM to see if the FOSC is the right one, which it is.
I have attached an image which shows the communication between the pic and I2C with an oscilloscope.
The main objective is to get the 1Hz  of the SQW pin, and for some reason I can´t get it to work.
I´ve noticed that the putcI2C(); command doesn´t test for and acknowledgment condition and tryied putting  while(!PIR1bits.SSP1IF); after each putcI2C(); command but it also doesn´t work.

In the oscilloscope I´ve noticed that the ack condition shows SDA = 1 and SCL = 1 but should{t it be SDA = 0 and SCL = 1?.
has anyone encontered this kind of problem? The pull up resistors are 4.7K and the RTC is really close to the pic.

Please someone help!

Hi, you sure that is right?  according to the datasheet "Illogical time and date entries result in undefined operation"  and it looks like you're writing 0's into registers that shouldn't be set to 0.  for example register 03h, day of the week, valid entries are 1-7  ?

Also looking at the datasheet on power-up it seems to reset itself;  so if you were to wait, then you only need to set reg 07h to get the 1hz output ?

Hello I got it working.
As you say those registers aren´t supposed to carry those numbers, but you can still write in them. It just doesn´t make sense to have a 0 DOW or something like that.

My problem solution was that after each putI2C(); I have to put a IdleI2C(); just to wait until each write command has finished.
There is a note on the microcontroller peripheal that says that if one does not put that wait until idle the microcontroller will flip out and try to do all the commands without finishing the communication with the last one.

Also I had the SDA and SCL lines backwars. =P

But yeah if anyone has any trouble with I2C you can send me a mail.

lol - you gotta love electronics; being 99.8% there sometimes isn't enough!

cool! glad you got it sorted! ;-)
