Questions answered in these manuals
How do you enter In‑System Programming (ISP) mode?
Write the values 87H then 59H to the CHPENR register, then set CHPCON.0 to 1; the device will enter ISP mode after waking from idle.
What are the power‑management modes of the W78E516B?
The device supports an idle mode, where the CPU clock stops but peripherals run, and a power‑down mode, which stops all clocks including the oscillator.
