carefully at the keypad, you will see that scancode does not match the actual key In order to read the correct key, we will use a KEYTABLE before outputting the value to the CSG.

Blocks can be used to read up to 64 key inputs. Block must be selected separately. For ports not used within the input Port Block, a resistor must be connected to 5V. This pin may not be used for other purpose when using this command. For ports not used within the output Port Block, they can be left in OPEN state. This Two Port
