The main issue is that optimized code is almost impossible to debug by stepping through the source code: You just get lost. Therefore we created a greatly reduced version of the code which could be compiled without optimization and would still fit into the limited flash space. The IR version never made it thus far, it was just too big.

Now you may wonder how I manged to get it to work? My main tool was the emulator for the high level stuff and a scope for controlling the output wave forms. The rest was imagination...

Thanks for explaining Marcus, I appreciate your taking the time to explain.

In fact, I did wonder (just for a moment); that process with the scope sounds tedious!

And quite an imagination! Thanks again.
