Both the pad enter key and the main enter key yield for me an identical: Char = <Return>, Octal = 15, Decimal = 13 on German standard keyboard layout. Why do these yield different chars for you? What keyboard layout are you using that it sends different keycodes for both enter keys, and what terminal emulator with which terminfo are you using? To my knowledge, all that can affect what a TUI application is seeing when you press a key. If your keyboard layout does not have both enter and pad enter bound to <Return> to begin with, perhaps that would be the most straightforward way to go?
