Code: Select all
fingertest
Did not find fingerprint sensor :(
I measured the voltage getting to the connections under the sensor and i got a reading of 4.29v.
I tried using pins 8/9 for serial and i changed the code to correspond but that did not work.
I tried using my Arduino MEGA 2560 with the serial pins changed to 10/11.
While using the windows software the TX/RX lights on the board blinked.
I also soldered 22AWG solid-core hookup wire to the wires and I also soldered male header pins to the serial wires. I have also checked the connections under the sensor are secure.
I have also read these forum posts several times http://forums.adafruit.com/viewtopic.php?f=19&t=50715 http://forums.adafruit.com/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=46302
I would appreciate your input/advice on what further steps I can take to make the fingerprint scanner work successfully with the Arduino.
Looking forward to hearing from you shortly.
Many thanks
