Open source means extensive documentation, wide compatibility, and zero vendor lock-in

Real-time Monitoring in Manufacturing with Arduino Opta Digital Expansions

Production data can be visualized locally via an HMI, or even by connecting to the Arduino Opta via Bluetooth® Low Energy. The simplicity of Arduino Cloud allows you to remotely display custom dashboards; Opta and Opta Digital Expansions are also compatible with other major Cloud providers.

Opta digital expansions are available in two variants:

  • Arduino Pro Opta Ext D1608E: 16 programmable Voltage inputs, 8 Electromechanical relays 250 VAC 6A
  • Arduino Pro Opta Ext D1608S: 16 programmable Voltage inputs, 8 Solid State relays 24 VDC 2A

Enhancing Security with Arduino Opta Analog Expansion

Elevate your security measures to new heights, ensuring not just safety but also efficiency. Enforce your physical security access having doors and motion detection meticulously monitored by analog sensors. Real-time data from sensors guide access control, alarm systems, and surveillance, while Arduino Opta regulates locks and entry points with impeccable precision.

Arduino Pro Opta Ext A0602 Flexible Inputs user programmable: 4 analog inputs, for 0-10 V, 0/4-20 mA, 2 analog inputs, for 0-10 V, 0/4-20 mA, or temperature (RTD PT100) Configurable Outputs: 2 analog outputs (0-10 V or 0/4-20 mA) and 4 digital PWM outputs

Arduino Pro offers a wide range of industrial-grade hardware components for high-performance, reliable and versatile solutions.
