#161173 - starting from scratch with knowledge
Responding to: ???'s previous message
I have some source
whatever that is it is 1000 times more valuable than
to disassemble the hex to get the assembly code

starting from scratch with knowledge what the thingy is to do is 100 times easier than trying to figure out what some disassembly does.

one thing that MAY (just may) be helpful is to run the thing with an ICE, you can (at least with Keil) reasonably well find the top of main and, of course, the ISRs are easy to find and (hopefully) traceable.

again disassembly or ICE hints will NOT give you the code, but you may glance some aspects of functionality if you do not have total "knowledge what the thingy is to do", if you do, just start coding.

been there, done that
