Unzip above FingerprintSensor.zip, you see FingerprintSensor. Move this folder to Arduino IDE libraries sub folder,

Input fingerprint:

In Arduino IDE Click >File -> Example ->FingerprintSensor->Enroll , then load the file in to Arduino.

Open serial terminal window in upper right corner, you will see following result:

1

In text field input ‘true’ and then click ‘send’ ,the green LED in fingerprint sensor will flash,the serial terminal will show following message:

2

Put your finger onto the sensor, the sensor will record your finger print into memory.

Verify fingerprint

In Arduino IDE Click >File -> Example ->FingerprintSensor->fingerprint, then load the file in to Arduino.,

your will see green LED will flash,open serial window and put your previous finger into sensor again, you will see new message in serial terminal as following:
