  @File Name
    mssp1.h

  @Summary
    This is the generated header file for the MSSP1 driver using MPLAB(c) Code Configurator

  @Description
    This header file provides APIs for MSSP1.
    Generation Information :
        Product Revision  :  MPLAB(c) Code Configurator - 4.15
        Device            :  PIC18F27K40

  @Summary
    Initializes the SPI1

  @Description
    This routine initializes the SPI1.
