I am working on R307 i can perfectly enroll my finger print but when I go for fingerprint.ino on serial mointor it continuouslly give command of no finger dedected as it s in loop how can i solve this

Can you please edit your opening post, select all code and click the </> button to apply code tags and next save your post. It makes it easier to read, easier to copy and prevents the forum software from incorrect interpretation of the code.

You can keep track of the previous value of the variable p; if it did not change, don't take action.

Please follow the advice given in the link below when posting code. Use code tags (the </> icon above the compose window) to make it easier to read and copy for examination

You should post code by using code-tags
There is an automatic function for doing this in the Arduino-IDE
just three steps

  1. press Ctrl-T for autoformatting your code
  2. do a rightclick with the mouse and choose "copy for forum"
  3. paste clipboard into write-window of a posting

best regards Stefan

If you don't want it to report "No finger detected." on Serial Monitor, comment out this line.

How can i solve the problme for Communication Error on serial moniter

Sorry. I don't know why you are getting communication errors.
