Why when i use serial port i need to declare this 2 declaration
#ifdef MONITOR51 // Debugging with Monitor-51 needs char code reserve [3] _at_ 0x23; // space for serial interrupt if #endif // Stop Exection with Serial Intr. #ifndef MONITOR51 SCON = 0x50; // SCON: mode 1, 8-bit UART, enable rcvr TMOD |= 0x20; // TMOD: timer 1, mode 2, 8-bit reload TH1 = 221; // TH1: reload value for 1200 baud @ 16MHz TR1 = 1; // TR1: timer 1 run TI = 1; // TI: set TI to send first char of UART #endif
. What is good for ??? Why can i just write this :
SCON = 0x50; // SCON: mode 1, 8-bit UART, enable rcvr TMOD |= 0x20; // TMOD: timer 1, mode 2, 8-bit reload TH1 = 221; // TH1: reload value for 1200 baud @ 16MHz TR1 = 1; // TR1: timer 1 run TI = 1; // TI: set TI to send first char of UART
What is the different between them ???
Thanks for the help

Thus, there is the conditional compile monitor or not
Erik
explain what you meant
conditional compile monitor or not ?? i didn't understand
thanks mayer
#ifndef MONITOR51
You don't. You only need them if you want to use the serial port and still be able to optionally use the debugger monitor kernel (MON51).
The debugger needs the serial port for itself, and it would wreak havoc on your debug session if you re-configured that port in the middle of a debug session. But you must configure the port yourself if you're not using the debug monitor. So the code has to behave differently, depending if the debug monitor is being used or not.
