Does someone has a MACRO for a 4x4 keypad (with A, B, C and D in the 4th column)?

Kind regards

Jan

Some like this.

Essential is the global definition Keypad_to_Acsii with the wanted characters. This can be easily changed. This list must be extended with 255 for "not pressed". Two macros completes all: Get_Keypad and WiatUntilRealeased.

Kind regards

Hi Jan,

Can you send us a link or photo of your keypad layout. We can probably fairly easily create a new component with the right layout for you.

Hi Jan,
What about using the Generic Keypad (use search: keypad), changing Columns and Rows to 4, then changing ascii returns and intfixed values?

Thanks for the photo Jan,

I've created a new component for you and uploaded to the update system. Just change "Files in use" to "Full database" on the update window to get the new component.

The numeric values inside the component I've assigned like this.

1, 2, 3, 10
4, 5, 6, 11
7, 8, 9, 12
14,0,15,13

Hope this makes sense.

edit: I basically did what Martin suggested and then exported as a component. Either way will work fine :D

Hi Martin,

It looks perfect your solution, but I could not find it.

I'm sorry.

Kind regards

Hi Jan,

Thanks for letting us know and glad it's working for you.
It looks perfect your solution, but I could not find it.
The generic Keypad component is no longer shown in a component category and is only available now via the Search.

This is the method, both mysef and Ben are stating.

Indeed, never too old to learn!
Its a pleasure.
At least you now have two different solutions, which is way better then none!
