Updated Demo Code 2013-05-24
We have tested with library on 4X4 keypad, but there is some thing need to change.Please follow the steps.
- Download this library, and it's refer to this arduino page.
- Use the example called "custom keypad" in the menu
- switched the pins, pin 1 connect to the keypad will make one row or one column not work out. so let's change all the wirings from 1-4 and 5-7 to 5-7 and 8-11.
- Always try to avoid pin 1, in other keypad version.
Pin Definitions
VCC Row 1, 2, 3, 4
NC Column 1, 2, 3, 4
Output high TTL signal when either row or column buttons are pressed.
