Can someone please
1) Explain the calculation behind MAXDELAY in the following program
2) Confirm if in Dimmers only Positive half is controlled (and WHY)?

'
' This program is use to dim intensity of an AC line load
' like lamp, motor and other. Developped for 60 Hz line.
'
' This allow to increase or decrease intensity.
' If the user doesn't held at least 0.5 sec:
' 1. "Increase" : we will set the output for full brightness
' 2. "Decrease" : we will turn off the output
'
'
' The software need :
' 1. A full wave signal from the AC line on GP4
'
' The software use :
' 1. TIMER1 overflow to check if pushbutton are hold for
' more than 0.5 Sec
' 2. Interrupt on GP4 (AcLine input) to synchronise Triac
