A little help please - Futurlec ENC28J60 / email

Hello,

I am using PCWHD 4.093 with a Futurlec 18F8722 uC board, and an ENC28J60 ethernet mini-board.

I have been using pic's for many years, and am familiar with the standard stuff, like sensors, lcd's, serial, etc. I have a pretty good knowledge of the internet, but the low level stuff is a bit mind boggling.

I have loaded ex_st_email.c compiled it and downloaded it to my test set. I do not get any data on the terminal or lcd (both are working). Also, I only get a red led on the ENC28J60 board (no flashing etc).

Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong? I would assume there should be an include for the ENC device, and a .h or .c file that shows the pin connections.

I guess I need some help getting this going, if anyone has figured out how to send an email, I would appreciate hearing about it! This is for a home automation system (not original, but turning into quite a project), and I would love to have it email my blackberry if sump pumps fail or power goes out. Sounded easy when I started...

Thanks in advance,

Steven

Hello everyone,

In my quest to email, I actually read some of the CCS documentation and it looks like ex16.c is the code for emailing.

I have changed the device type, set the STACK_USE_CCS_PICENS to true, modified the IP address in ccstcpip.h, modified the pin settings for the Futurlec ENC28J60 board in enc28j60.c to match my hardware (port D).
