Caution: The sensor surface is hard and extremely robust and will withstand years of
normal wear-and-tear. However, do not subject the sensor to sharp or hard objects
since this might cause permanent damage. Cleaning should be done with a lint-free
cotton textile. Do not subject the sensor surface to mechanical force.

To use UART1, you need to send “D&C00040107” via UART0 to enable UART1 to
work. UART1 works at 115200bps (8-bit digits), data in ASCII format. Working flow is
as following:
APPUART0 UART1 device need to be connected
Other deviceUART1UART0APP

Fingerprint Verification Workflow
Fingerprint API: detailed notes see android_serialport_api.FingerprintAPI
Note: Fingerprint API class fingerprint method of operation are blocked Process 1：
PSGetImage->PSUpImage->PSGenChar
Process 2：PSDownChar Download the template data from the fingerprint enrollment
functional flow chart in the PSUpChar method returns data.
The two processes regardless of the order, you can first perform a
re-implementation process two processes can also be contrary
PSUpImageThis step can be omitted, this method is to upload the fingerprint image
data
PSGetImage: Input fingerprint image
PSUpImage: The image of the fingerprint image buffer ImageBuffer data uploaded to
the host computer
PSGenChar: Fingerprint image according to the image data buffer in the specified
characteristic value generated CharBuffer
PSRegModel：According CharBuffer1 and CharBuffer2 the feature value data stored
in CharBuffer1 template synthesis and CharBuffer2 in (two CharBuffer the same
data)
PSUpChar: CharBuffer in the specified characteristic value or template data
uploaded to the host computer
PSDownChar：The characteristic values or templates to download data to a specified

open the serial port, then carries on the related operations
public void closeSerialPort()：When the program exit or don't have to fingerprint
information, this method is called to close a serial port
