Same input twice but different output every time

Hello everyone,
I am using a sg-90 servo motor and fingerprint R-307 sensor.

what I want to do is while applying thumb servo should go 0 to 90 degree and again with the same thumb, it should go to 90 to 180 degree.

I tried a lot of different structures but it is not happing.

What is not happening? In other words, can you describe in more detail? For example does the servo move at all? Have you run example test code for the servos to make sure that they actually work?

code inline:

#include <Servo.h>
Servo myservo;
int pos = 0;

Also you say

what I want to do is while applying thumb servo should go 0 to 90 degree and again with the same thumb, it should go to 90 to 180 degree.

That leaves some questions open. What happens after it reaches 180 degrees, and when does that happen? How long should it stay there? What happens if it goes to 90 degrees, and another person comes along and puts a different thumb on the sensor? Is there any time limit between the first and second thumb scan?

How are you powering your devices? Are both the servo and sensor drawing power from the Arduino? What kind of board is it?

Servos do not move instantaneously. After you issue a move command, you have to delay() a while to wait until they get there. Also, you read pin 9 to figure out if you want to move to 180 or not. That has nothing to do with the "same thumb" in your post.

After you read a print, you can set a variable to remember you have seen that thumb and then move to 180 vs 90 if it is the same upon the next read.

After a much improved explanation, posting the code properly may help.

Posting the code properly means:

Using the Arduino IDE autoformat function on the code (CTRL-T on a PC).
Using code tags (looks like </> ).
Using copy and paste into the code tags.

The autoformat function helps the helpers.
Posting inline using code tags helps me and anyone else who uses a mobile device.
Copy and paste helps to avoid mistakes.

I am using Arduino UNO.
form initial position 0 it should go to 90 degrees from the first input and stay there for the second input.
it should stay at 90 degrees until me or anyone inputs a finger. after giving the second time input it should goto 90 to 180 degrees. till another finger input.

it is working now but perform only the first input and the servo stuck in the first position only not able to perform the second input.

Like I stated in reply#2, you have to keep track of where you are. This example will just step from 0->90->180->0... each time a valid fingerprint is scanned. You will get a lot of output since your code prints many messages every 50msec.

Hi,
Welcome to the forum.

Please read http://forum.arduino.cc/index.php/topic,148850.0.html.
Then look down to item #7 about how to post your code.
It will be formatted in a scrolling window that makes it easier to read.

Can you please post a copy of your circuit, in CAD or a picture of a hand drawn circuit in jpg, png?

Thanks.. Tom.. :slight_smile:
