Hello
i'm making a custom keypad for my LK202-25..but i have some trouble...i made some test with my original MO keypad, and i founded this :
up arrow key pushed => Pin 2 and 5 connected.
down arrow => 2 and 4
left arrow => 1-4
right arrow => 3-4
Enter key => 2-6
F1 key => 1-5
F2 key => 1-6

so i connected momentary switchs acording to this result...i test it today with the MO test software...
when i push one of the switchs "ddddd" is displayed on the screen and the software indicates that key E is pushed...(it do this with all keys...) My connections seems ok.. Is there a method to check it without turning on the pc every time ?
This problem should only come from the switch connections ?

Thanks in advance for your help..
