Hello

The Columns should be connected to the I/O pins with a 10K series resistor in between the columns pin and I/O pin.

The Rows should be connected directly to the I/O pins with a parrallel 100K pull down to ground.

For a graphical example of this you can look at the EB014 datasheet which contains a schematic of how we wire up our 3 x 4 keypad.
