In the Datasheet in page 16:
With EXTRAM = 0, the XRAM is indirectly addressed, using the MOVX instruction in
combination with any of the registers R0, R1 of the selected bank or DPTR. An
access to XRAM will not affect ports P0, P2, P3.6 (WR) and P3.7 (RD). For
example, with EXTRAM = 0, MOVX @R0, # data where R0 contains 0A0H,
accesses the XRAM at address 0A0H rather than external memory. An access to
external data memory locations higher than the accessible size of the XRAM will be
performed with the MOVX DPTR instructions in the same way as in the standard
80C51, so with P0 and P2 as data/address busses, and P3.6 and P3.7 as write and
read timing signals. Accesses to XRAM above 0FFH can only be done thanks to the
use of DPTR.
