Fingerprint sensor factory reset

Post by Almindor »

Hello,

I've bought the https://www.adafruit.com/products/751 fingerprint sensor and it worked fine up to a certain point. I'm using it with the espruino board r1.3. I've written my own drivers for it using your arduino drivers + the translated manual and everything worked fine until one point where I suddenly stopped getting responses from the device.

I've got a feeling I might have inadvertently sent a SetAddr request with a random number into the device, basically locking myself out. I'm not 100% sure if this happened, but I wanted to ask if there's a way to do a factory reset? I didn't find anything about doing a FA in the translated manual, and the full reference is in chinese.

I'll also try to see if it might be a HW related problem in the meantime.

Thanks

I don't know of a factory reset function.
