When you are using an ekey finger scanner, you can also add the LAN converter and send udp events to other systems in the network (like Node-RED).
This flow will help you to receive "home" events of the converter and splits the information into an object. Just configure Node-RED as the target in the ekey configuration tool and use target port 5555 (or change it in the udp node after import).
