- A 4x4 numpad/macro pad with only through hole components. It supports up to 4 rotary encoder. The positions for the encoder are interchangeable with keyboard switches.

- Below you can see the possible positions for the 4 rotary encoder (Rev1 only 2).
- *If you place a encoder in the top left corner (E1), you can't use another encoder in the lower right corner.*
