It's all in the documentation available at:
  http://lcdproc.sourceforge.net/docs/current-user.html#MtxOrb

Here's the relevant part:

KeyMap_LETTER= KEY 

Matrix Orbital displays support keypads with up to 25 keys, which return one 
of the letters A - Y for each pressed key. 

These settings allow to map the letter LETTER, that is generated by the 
display when a key is pressed, to be mapped to a key name KEY that LCDd can 
understand (see LCDd.conf: The [Menu] Section for more information). 

There is no default key mapping; if no keys are mapped in the LCDd.conf config 
file, the display is treated as if it had no keys attached. 
Example 5.3.

      KeyMap_A=Left
      KeyMap_B=Right
      KeyMap_C=Up
      KeyMap_D=Down
      KeyMap_E=Enter
      KeyMap_F=Escape

Hope it helps
Peter
