 		 #166148 - No, that's precisely where you're wrong
Responding to: David Prentice's previous message
David Prentice said:
Having done the single calibration

No!

You have absolutely no guarantee whatsoever as to precisely what code the compiler will generate!
Therefore you have to check the calibration after every single re-build to ensure that it is still valid.

So you might just as well write it in assembler in the first place, and be done with it.

It isn't hard - see the linked instructions in: http://www.8052.com/forum/read/162556
