well thanks for your reply, my knowledge is no so deep on this subject, but what i have been told is that instead of thinking of the finger print decoder, just think of a multiplexer sending inputs to the pic. But first of all a pin code is required from a 10 button keypad to open a registry. Then the person has to place his finger on the finger print decoder and the decoder sends this information to the pic where the information in the registry will be compared to the received data from the multiplexer.
The output can be a LED, if the code matches, the led light up and if not the led remain switched off.
briefly we can say that there are information already saved in a regisrty or memory. Each registry or memory has a code, so that it can be accesed. Inside these registry or memories there are data which will need to be compared to open the door.
