You won't be able to use the keypad directly with the ECU due to the CAN messaging structure used by the keypad.

With the keypad connected to a PDM you will be able to re-transmit the keypad button status out of the PDM in a format that can be used with the ECU. However, it will also be dependant on what other CAN traffic and devices you have sending CAN messages to the ECU on whether you will be able to get it to work.

Our webinars on setting up CAN are a good start, you can find them here

If you have specific questions after that then I can help out, otherwise I suggest taking it to your local MoTeC Dealer. They will be able to configure it correctly for your particular setup.
