RFID on arduino MEGA 2560

Firstly, hello there, i purchased my first arduino a few days ago and im loving it. I have a rig set up in my room to use this as an RFID entry system. The people i purchased the kit off gave me some code for the RFID reader which works and has allowed me to add in my own commands for moving the deadbolt and lighting up a green LED when a card is detected ETC however i decided to scan the RFID reader with mine and my brothers college cards and it opens the lock with any RFID card baisically. Below i will post my code but im looking for a way to define the cards to accept and the ones to detect. If it helps, when i scan the cards i am given the ID's which are as follows ....

College card -93F9B532

key chain - F3BB3EAA

blank card -B5AA59B3

when i scan the cards or keychain the serial monitor displays that as the card number. Is it possible to make the code accept say the college card and they keychain and deny the blank card? Any help or suggestions are much appreciated.

Thank you for your help :slight_smile:

Okay, that code is way above my level of knowledge, but I would think a simple If..Then..Else controller would do the trick. Simply, If the KeyID = 93F9B532, then do myservo.write. I think this code may be a bit long-winded for your purposes. I've never worked with RFID before, but I'm going to be setting up a rig like yours for the club's classroom at the school to lock other people out. Good luck!

now i tried that and yeah, its way above what i can deal with too :confused: but i mean inside the bit of code below which is what is activated when a card is detected i tried an if statement which was baisically if serNum matched the a string which was the ID of the card then to have the motor code in there but looking closer. serNUM seems to be hex which is converted to a string when printed out so i cant compare hex to a string.

 if (status == MI_OK)
  {

  }

:blush: man this is complicated, Ive decided to stop looking for the answer to this for a moment and work on the button and getting LED's just right and then have a break and come back and dig for the answer again :confused:

Well good luck. Hopefully someone who knows a bit more than me will be able to help. I'll send one of my friends over if I can.

There is an option, under the Additional Options... link, to attach your code to your post, so you don't have to put it in the rubbish bin (which I can't access).

Ah, thanks. I didn't know that, I'll keep that in mind for my own posts later on. xD

its too large :frowning:

Well im going to ask some tutors at my college to go over the code and see if they can help me on tuesday, until then i decided to just hook it up :stuck_out_tongue: Arduino RFID door lock system - YouTube

its too large

I can't imagine how a 4Meg file will compile to fit on the Mega.

Maybe using a USB shield or a memory card? Would that work, or no?

No. The compiled hex file has to fit in Flash Memory. A 4.0+ Meg source file will not produce a hex file that fits on any Arduino.

Ah ok. Well, this seems to be a problem.

No no, by too large i mean the person that wanted to see the code asked if i could paste it on here inside the code tags but its too large to put in there as it is longer than 9600 characters

Oh. OK.

The limit when you just paste code into your post is 9500 characters. The limit when you use Additional Options... is 4,000,000 characters. Pay attention, son!

When you click Additional Options, there is button labeled Browse... Give that a try. I am NOT going to paste your code back together.

Since it's been so long, you might want to summarize what the problem is, too.

If you can't follow a simple instruction like posting code as a file under the additional options how do you expect to understand any advice we may be able to give you?
