I bought the 4x4 keypad from your store and the LCD GLK240-25
Looking at the manual for the 4x4 Keypad I'm not sure which end is number 1 pin. So if I was to look at the keypad from above with the buttons facing at mee. is Pin 1 on the leftmost side?
Also, since the LCD allows up to 5x5 keypad interface, I can't just stick the 8 pin header into the back of it as it doesn't line up perfectly. What would be the best way to connect the 4x4 keypad to the LCD?
At the moment, I just going to crimp some wires and connect it one by one to the LCD
Thanks

Hi Illusion29,
The keypad header on the GLK24064-25 will have two optional ground connection bordering ten usable inputs; five rows and five columns. To induce a keypress, short any row pin to any column pin.
It is recommended that the 4x4 keypad be placed in the middle of this header, taking rows 2-5 and columns 1-4 and ensuring each key has one side of it's switch on a row and a column.
You can always check out the keypad section of your manual online for additional info.
