Can you clarify what you would like to do?
The Arduboy can be made to appear as a USB keyboard or mouse when attached to a USB host port on a PC or other device. For example:
Hello!
This is a virtual mouse and keyboard for your Arduboy. Days ago I needed a mouse (for some reason in Acronis Trueimage you cannot use the touchpad of the MS Surface Pro 4) and I did not have any physical mouse laying around so this could be handy on those emergencies.

What I want to do is make the Arduboy an keyboard and then use the d-pad on the Arduboy as numpad keys and so my question was if you could “output” numpad keys.

Do you want a virtual keyboard on the arduboy where you can move a cursor with the arrow keys or do you want to map the directional buttons to numpad keys?
