Details

Matrix keypads are defined by a number of scan and return lines (see kp.scanlinesmapping and kp.returnlinesmapping).

Binary keypads only need return lines and directly output the binary codes of keys. The kp.idlecode property must match the code sent by your binary keypad when no key is pressed.

This property can only be changed when the keypad is disabled (kp.enabled= 0- NO).
