Fingerprint sensor with Arduino and ESP

[@photoswisscore]

Square pad or red/pink marking on a flat cable means this is the first pin, and not ground pin, it haven't any standard for this, just do warn about this. Groud is easy to find with the ground plane on the PCB!

[@nenioc187]

Thanks! This time, I was just lucky.

[@BillySugger1965]

WARNING! - square pad usually means pin 1, not ground! You had a 50:50 chance and were lucky here.

[@nenioc187]

Thanks! Didn't know that. But my stakes where high, because pin 1 is also GND in this case ;-)

Hi, I have a question, the biometric reader you are using would be the dy50 ?

[@nenioc187]

@@gama3006 Haven't found any ID on this sensor. But they might be all similar in use.

I dont know how nodeMcu could work with this fingerprint sensor. This fingerprint sensor uses TTL levels and NodeMcu works only with 3.3v. I think it needs a level converter to work properly.

ON my project, i have also an lcd i2c display. When i power supply the project from a external source, not from usb cable for arduino, the lcd display doesn't show any data. Just powers on the screen. Do you have any idea what could be the issue?

[@philipmarshall3241]

Quick question. When connecting to the NodeMCU board, what pins are you using for the serial communication with the fingerprint sensor? What does that look like with regard to using SoftwareSerial?

[@nenioc187]

With the SoftwareSerial library, you can use any digital pins on the NodeMcu.

How did you make the wires for the fingerprint sensor compatible for arduino? Sorry I'm new to this and am so confused on how you made it compatible

[@nenioc187]

I soldered jumper cables to the flatband. Didn't I mentioned it?

Can we help you???

Same problem Bhai solution mila kya aapko ?

[@anviciber]

Hello, did you solved the problem? i have the same issue, the led bliks an stay off.

[@ahmadahmad-fz8no]

my fingerprint sensor sometimes detect finger when there is no finger on it , how can i solve this issue ? is it wires/soldering issue ?

Does toeprints work?

I have the same one I was wondering mine was a bit different they want me to open html to get that program u have on ur screen can yall recommend me a way

Hy brother how to send fingerprint data to Firebase database using nodemcu esp8266. Please reply.

[@manasagowda5820]

Sir after giving all connections and we r going to dump the our project code but it's comming like finger print is not detected what's problem in that please tell sir wt we want to do for that one please help me sir .......

Is the adafruit library compatible only with adafruit fingerprint?

[@nenioc187]

I used a generic fingerprint sensor with the Adafruit library.

How to send finger print scanner data to mysql or any other database plz help

[@rafieafifandika9938]

Is these device can integration to web by using php? I want to make system login web with this device?

[@fikodor]

WHAT CAN I DO? The fingerprint sensor could not be initialized! Exception Message: The received packet do not begin with a valid header!

[@magicianofelectronics951]

I think it is programming issue

Sir fingerprint sensor ma Fingerprint save hona ka bad remove kasa kar ga

There is delete example in the library

[@jesusdelaluz6664]

Hi!! I am from Mexico and y did not know how made my code. But when i found your video all my questions has been answered. Thank you very very much!!1

[@nenioc187]

I'm glad, I could help!

@@nenioc187 Thank you for your support !! Have a nice night ;)

[@MagivaIT]

but the esp has both 3.3 AND 5v rails

[@nenioc187]

No. Usually the NodeMcu has only 3.3V outputs. Although it has one 5V input pin.
