I'm working on a project involving a Speakjet and a PIC chip I'm
programming in C and have run into some trouble. Anyone able to help
me out?

Let me give some more information:

I am using serial communication to a PIC chip programmed in C. When
the setup is turned on, the Speakjet enunciates "Ready." Using the
following code, I can cause it to enunciate "Ready" an additional
time:

#include <16F877.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#use delay(clock=20000000)
#use rs232(baud=9600, xmit=PIN_D1)

void main()
{
delay_ms(2000);
printf("");
delay_ms(2000);
printf("V");
}

---

However, I have tried a number of methods and I can't get it to say
anything else from the list of sounds in the Speakjet user manual
(http://lib.store.yahoo.net/lib/e-clec-tech/speakjetchip.pdf). I am
wondering if anyone could post a simple sample code in C that would
show me how to make it enunciate a word? I am entirely unfamiliar with
other programming languages and only somewhat familiar with C, so
something as simple and as thoroughly explained as possible would be
very much appreciated.

You may not get much response here, as the group (like many
technical-oriented groups) has been subjected to a lot of "splorge"
lately and this has caused some people to stay away. If you don't get a
response, you might try the following Yhaoo group, which discusses this
chip:

or ask on this forum, which serves as a kind of temporary haven until
this newsgroup returns to normal:
