RFID help

[shmagoogin]

Hello
I just recieved my RFID reader and am amazed with it
Except for one thing
the thing comes with example code but i have no idea what the heck its talking about
i havnt had my basic stamp for too long but im pretty good sith it
so if someone could walk me through the example code given here http://www.parallax.com/dl/src/prod/RFID1.BS2 it would be soo helpful
thanks

Ed,

·· It might be easier to explain what you don't undertand.· There are two main example codes for the RFID Reader.· One displays the code from a tag while the other simulates a security door tag reader.

how could you make the securioty door tag reader
not the codeing for it like the actuall locking part

You might want to do a web search on security systems and look for electric door latches. Essentially, you want a solenoid controlled latch.
