[PD] Bang order entry

As it is coming from the arduino firmata, the only way I know is that the signal inputs a bang.
So I'll have 2 bangs being hit with a delay between them. this delay depends on the speed of the body crossing the sensors and its size!
calling them bang1 and bang2, if the order is bang1 then bang2 = coming in, if it is bang2 then bang1 it means coming out.
the thing is I think I have to pair the hits to set an order and I just don't know how to pair them and read it to then bang an "in" or an "out".

what form is this coming into pd in? 

If it's a list (such as (door_crossing in) or (door_crossing out))

then you could parse it down with routes

e.g. 
[route door_crossing] (removes the first item in the list, if it's door_crossing)
|
[sel in out] (the first two inlets will be a bang if it's in or out respectively)

Not sure how else you might be getting the data into pd
