in 'mov SCON, #50h' where does the 50 come from? i understand what its suppose to do. setting bits 4 and 6, 8-bit uart, etc. but how does it add up to 50hex? Comment it clearly to make it obvious; eg,
mov SCON, #50h ; 50h = 0101 0000

Most assemblers allow you to use binary notation directly - which would make more sense here ('C' doesn't allow binary notation, so 'C' authors have no choice but to use hex). Better still would be to use symbolic constants rather than "magic numbers"... |
