Arduino Pro Opta Ext D1608E
The snap-on expansion module to enhance Arduino Opta’s applications with the addition of 16 programmable voltage inputs and 8 electromechanical relays.
Overview
Arduino Pro Opta Ext D1608E enhances your Arduino Opta’s real-time control, monitoring and predictive maintenance applications with the addition of 16 programmable voltage inputs and 8 electromechanical relays 250 VAC 6A to operate your machines.
Just snap on the module to extend your system’s capabilities flexibly and quickly, and manage the new I/Os from the Opta base unit seamlessly, taking advantage of the open and widely known Arduino ecosystem or PLC IDE IEC 61131-3 programming environment.
Key benefits:
- Flexible inputs: 16 new voltage inputs for your applications per each expansion added, programmable as digital or analog.
- Powerful outputs: 8 electromechanical relays offering 250 VAC for 6A each.
- Up to 5 snap-on modules can be managed to multiply and mix a set of I/Os with seamless detection: snap them right next to your Opta base module and use the I/Os as native Opta resources.
- Extend your hardware capabilities while keeping programming accessible, by using the Arduino IDE with its wide range of ready-to-use sketches, tutorials and libraries.
- Put your new I/Os easily to work with the PLC IDE for IEC 61131-3 PLC languages, taking advantage of its low-code approach and pre-mapped resources.
- Extend the Opta’s benefits of real-time remote monitoring via intuitive Arduino Cloud dashboards and secure communication to a wider set of connected devices.
- Reliable by design, thanks to industrial certifications and Finder’s expertise in electronic devices.
- Easy DIN rail installation.
Applications
Opta’s digital expansions are ideal to increase the number of real-time control points in the manufacturing sector and in any building automation project.
The Opta Ecosystem is compatible with all major cloud providers – but choosing the simplicity of Arduino Cloud can really make a difference, for anyone who wants to build, customize and remotely manage their own dashboards.

Button Clash is an exciting two-player game where the person who pushes their button faster wins! Built it with the Arduino Plug and Make kit.
The Arduino Plug and Make Kit was designed to open up infinite possibilities, breaking down the idea that technology is a “black box” reserved for experts. With its snap-together system, this kit gives everyone – beginners and seasoned makers alike – the power to create and innovate without barriers. Forget being a passive user! With the Plug and Make Kit, technology is accessible and ready to bring your ideas to life. Meet Giulio Pilotto, Plug and Make Kit Star Giulio Pilotto is one of Arduino’s senior software engineers and works closely on Arduino Cloud projects. When we held a “Make Tank” workshop at our Turin office to showcase the potential of the Plug and Make Kit, he joined in with inspiration from a recent escape room experience. The result was Riddle Treasure, a puzzle-based game that allows you to recreate the excitement of an escape room anywhere you are. At this year’s Maker Faire, Pilotto had the opportunity to present Riddle Treasure at the Arduino booth. While he had showcased his own creations at previous Maker Faire editions, this time felt special: “The Maker Faire is always a wonderful high-energy event,” he says. “I was happy to represent the Arduino team as we focus more than ever on the community: all our products were presented in the light of what people can do with them.” Riddle Treasure To be honest, this is probably the most advanced project our in-house “Make Tank” came up with (so far!). After all, it has to be somewhat complicated to emulate intricate escape room puzzles! However, following Pilotto’s step-by-step instructions on Project Hub and leveraging the easy snap-together mechanism of Modulino nodes, anyone can recreate Riddle Treasure – or even invent a personal, unique variation. The goal of the game is to unlock a safe. But to get there, you need to complete three steps in order. 1. Combination Lock: First, you must rotate the encoder in Modulino Knob like a
