Thank you Peter for your quick response,

So if I understand correctly, the 7i73.keycode pin is too fast to simply
check it with halmeter by eye. But should I see the changes in halscope?


Yes halscope will see any changes

You cannot in general use the keycode as it only reports deltas (and only
for 1
servo thread period) and a no-op code of 64 when idle (no changes) so you
will
miss the deltas in hal watch. Normally tye "matrix_kb" component is used
to
process the deltas into a static representaion of the keypad state
