#123261 - Through debugging
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Yes Jan, I have considered your recommendations and when I debugged it using keil debugger, it showed that the MC never executes even the first loop of the delay, instead it assumes a key has been pressed at:

CONFIRM_KEY_PRESS:
mov p0,#0f0h
acall delay_16ms
MOV A,P0 ;p0.0 t0 p0.3 => rows, p0.4 to 0.6 => columns
ANL A,#01110000b ;scan columns
cjne a,#01110000b,KEY_PRESS_CONFIRMED; if key pressed within 423ms, come out of delay loop


and jumps to 'keypad_ready' and ultimately to 'keypad_ready1' where IT WAITS UNTIL A KEY IS PRESSED. If not for the 'not equal' condition at 'cjne a,#01110000b,KEY_PRESS_CONFIRMED' the MC would have executed the delay completly and then execute 'SJMP SECOND_KEY_SCAN1'. What I don't understand here is, even with:

mov p0,#0f0h
acall delay_16ms
and the fact that no key is being pressed, why is the 'not equal' condition being 'TRUE'.
