Gamepad to keyboard output

Question
-
I'm trying to write code to take input from an xbox 360 controller, and output as the keyboard. I've have no troubles with most the buttons using sendinput, but i can't seem to figure out the scan codes to get the d-pad to simulate the arrow keys. I've read that these and the function buttons are different and have tried quite a few things but to no avail. Does anyone know how to use the arrow buttons through sendinput?
