Finally my foot keyboard is finished

[McZ]

This would be great for me but I don't understand how to connect the 2 wire to the keypad. Underneath the button when you pop it off can you just solder the wire to 2 points or something?

When I open the numpad keyboard there is a tiny PCB with 11 connections. The buttons was connected to different once of them but not in any logial order. I think I can use it to send any key to the computer not just numpad keys

My connection layout



X is wire 1 and Y is wire 2 for that button. So to get a numpad button 1 I had to connect 2 wires to pin 4 and 8. And as you can see buttons 1-3 all use pin 4 of the Numpad PCB. That is why I made had my own Lab circuit board as an extension of the pins to connect the wires.

Do you think you could write a 'How-To' guide? I'm not that handy with wiring and stuff but I have wanted a footboard like this for some time. There's nothing available commercially that matches it.

I know there isn't anything like this to buy thats why I made one.

Verry short guide
I got lots of stuff and then I put the pieces together
