Hi Paul, Just back from a sailing weekend so haven't seen this til now What exactly do you mean by a "keypad"? Something like these? http://catalogs.indiamart.com/products/handheld-terminal.html or just one of these? http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/category/category_slc.asp?MfrId=0&CatId=536 What will the keypad be connecting to? What sort of connection?
