Finger Print Sensor Wire Names

Post by Christina_ »

I'm looking at the following tutorial https://learn.adafruit.com/remote-contr ... dafruit-io and am wondering what each of the different coloured wires which are attached to the fingerprint sensor (found here: https://www.adafruit.com/product/751) were for (e.g. VIN, GND, RXDP, TXDN) because I can't see it in any of the images provided, nor can I find any useful diagrams and in the instructions they only refer to the wire's colour and not its actual name. Any help with discovering the names of each of the coloured wires would be useful!

There's a table in the "datasheet", which provides the following pin assignments:
1 VIN
2 TD
3 RD
4 GND
5 NC
