Custom Keyboard pg 2 |
These
pads are what the keys connect to...keyboard technology uses a matrix
(not THE MATRIX). You touch one of the pads on the right to one
on the left, and a keypress is created. To make things easy for
me I labled the 8 on the right A-H and the 16 on the left
1-16. It is a 8 down by 16 across matrix. Next I carefully plotted what combinations create what keys. I just took a piece of wire and started jumping pads. I plotted it on the matrix below. |
Never mind the penmanship, I was holding it in my lap while I was jumping pads. The X'd out ones are combinations that caused an error (don't exist). As you can see it closely matches the keyboard layout. |
