Fingerprint reader Grow R503

ESPHome
1

Hello,

I juste try to configure my R503 and all goes fine by following tutorial such as:

But I don’t succed to do something probably basic that is not in tutorials I find on the Web.

I just want to trigger an automation (typically that take a snapshot from my doorbell and notify me on phone) when fingerprint scan is UNAUTHORIZED. With authorized fingerprint tag, it is possible to trigger an automation but I don’t succeed to do the same when unauthorized fingerprint is scan.

Does anyone has any idea on how to realise that please ? Thanks in advance.

After searching all my yesterday evening and just after posting, I find a solution …

on_finger_scan_matched:
    - homeassistant.event:
        event: esphome.test_node_finger_scan_matched
        data:
          finger_id: !lambda 'return finger_id;'
          confidence: !lambda 'return confidence;'
    - fingerprint_grow.aura_led_control:
        state: BREATHING
        speed: 200
        color: GREEN
        count: 1
    - text_sensor.template.publish:
        id: fingerprint_state
        state: !lambda 'return "Authorized finger";'
# Pousser un événement tag_scanned basé sur finger_id uniquement si la confiance est supérieure à 50
# Créer une balise avec nom d'utilisateur pour chaque numéro d'identifiaction
    - if:
        condition:
          lambda: 'return confidence > 50;'
        then:
          - homeassistant.tag_scanned: !lambda |-
              switch (finger_id) {
                case 0:
                  return "person_0";
                case 1:
                  return "person_1";
#...
                default:
                  return "person_inconnu";
              }
    - delay: '00:00:10'
    - text_sensor.template.publish:
        id: fingerprint_state
        state: "default"
  on_finger_scan_unmatched:
    - homeassistant.event:
        event: esphome.test_node_finger_scan_unmatched
        data:
          title: unmatched
    - fingerprint_grow.aura_led_control:
        state: FLASHING
        speed: 25
        color: RED
        count: 2
    - text_sensor.template.publish:
        id: fingerprint_state
        state: "Unauthorized finger"
    - delay: '00:00:10'
    - text_sensor.template.publish:
        id: fingerprint_state
        state: "default"

I juste add a delay and restore a default state to the sensor.fingerprint_state. In fact, the state doesn’t return to default state after a scan. So, once You’ve scan your finger, the state stay “authorized” or “unauthorized” until the state changes and if you scan several time an unauthorized fingerprint, you won’t have any return.

I hope it can help.

My automation test

alias: Test unmatched
description: ""
trigger:
  - platform: state
    entity_id:
      - sensor.fingerprint_state
    to: Unauthorized finger
    from: null
condition: []
action:
  - service: light.toggle
    data: {}
    target:
      entity_id: light.salon
mode: single

Hi
I’m new with ESPhome. I want to install the fingerprint SW for R503 over Homeassistant/esphome. Can you send me the complete yaml file for this?

Thanks

Hi, could you upload your info(yaml, pinout, troubleshooting or automations), please? I’ve not been able to ajecute any action on the sensor. Thank you
