Hi! I'm fairly new to Arduino and I am struggling to find out what is wrong with my code.
I want a 4x4 Keypad to send a signal to my LED to create a visual morse code signal.
My code is in attachement and I think the problem is in linking the keypad to the morse code functions.

i don't think you want the #include down to "Keypad customKeypad" in your setup().
move the 3 lines starting with setup() to the 2nd Serial.begin
thanks but that doesn't seem to make a difference..
void loop(){
char customKey = customKeypad;
if (customKey){
Serial.println(customKey);
'customKeypad' was not declared in this scope is the error I get but I don't know
what is wrong about this part.
Please post your code.
int led =13;//the led pin
char input;// to save the input
void setup () {
pinMode (led,OUTPUT);//tell that the 13 pin is an output
Serial.begin(9600);//for the connect with the board
#include <Keypad.h>
const byte ROWS = 4;
const byte COLS = 4;
char hexaKeys[ROWS][COLS] = {
{'1', '2', '3', 'A'},
{'4', '5', '6', 'B'},
{'7', '8', '9', 'C'},
{'*', '0', '#', 'D'}
};
byte rowPins[ROWS] = {9, 8, 7, 6};
byte colPins[COLS] = {5, 4, 3, 2};
Keypad customKeypad = Keypad(makeKeymap(hexaKeys), rowPins, colPins, ROWS, COLS);
Serial.begin(9600);
pinMode (led,OUTPUT);//tell that the 13 pin is an output
Serial.begin(9600);//for the connect with the board
};
void loop(){
char customKey = customKeypad;
if (customKey){
Serial.println(customKey);
if (Serial.available()) {
input = Serial.read();//read the input
if (input == 'a' || input == 'A') {lA();}//if the input is a or A go to function A
if (input == 'b' || input == 'B') {lB();}//same but with b letter
if (input == 'c' || input == 'C') {lC();}
if (input == 'd' || input == 'D') {lD();}

if (input == '7') {n7();}
if (input == '8') {n8();}
if (input == '9') {n9();}
if (input == '0') {n0();}
if (input == '*') {space();}//the space
Serial.println (input);//print the latter saved in the input var
}
}
//functions for the letters and the numbers
void A () {dot();dash();shortspace();}//letter A in morse code!
void B () {dash();dot();dot();dot();shortspace();}//same for B

#include <Keypad.h>
const byte ROWS = 4;
const byte COLS = 4;
char hexaKeys[ROWS][COLS] = {

};
byte rowPins[ROWS] = {9, 8, 7, 6};
byte colPins[COLS] = {5, 4, 3, 2};
should not be inside setup.
char customKey = customKeypad; That doesn't look right.
Your code does Morse code for anything coming from the Serial port. If you want it to come from the keypad, use that variable instead
#include <Keypad.h>
const byte ROWS = 4;
const byte COLS = 4;
char hexaKeys[ROWS][COLS] = {
{'1', '2', '3', 'A'},
{'4', '5', '6', 'B'},
{'7', '8', '9', 'C'},
{'*', '0', '#', 'D'}
};
byte rowPins[ROWS] = {9, 8, 7, 6};
byte colPins[COLS] = {5, 4, 3, 2};
Keypad customKeypad = Keypad(makeKeymap(hexaKeys), rowPins, colPins, ROWS, COLS);
const int led = 13; //the led pin
void setup () {
Serial.begin(9600);
pinMode (led, OUTPUT); //tell that the 13 pin is an output
}
void loop() {
//char customKey = customKeypad;
char input = customKeypad.getKey();
if (input) {
Serial.println(input);
if (input == 'A') MorseA();
if (input == 'B') MorseB();
