NPKC 17 Switch Tester - mod to WORKING numpad!?

Hello

How would I make/transform this switch tester to an working numpad? I assume getting the pcb as an extra in the drop is recommend for that purpose..

Not recommended; required. Additionally, I don't think that the PCB will output true number codes, but perhaps someone with the switch tester and PCB can tell me for sure.

If you scroll through all the replies on massdrop you'll find someone who actually made their own pcb that lets you program the keypad however way you want. I'd go that route over the pcb massdrop offers.

So basically solder switches onto pcb and add a cable = test if its working :eek:
