Richard is correct in all regards in his post. (Thank you for replying, Richard... the time difference sometimes makes my replies appear late!)
I would definitely go with the digital keypad. I had the analog setup originally, and was unhappy as it was unreliable. I kept the same physical keypad but rewired it for digital operation. The difference is very noticeable... so much so that we changed the schematic and sketch to show only the digital option.
