Arduino Pro Opta Ext D1608S
The snap-on expansion module to enhance Arduino Opta’s applications with the addition of 16 programmable voltage inputs and 8 solid-state relays.
Overview
Arduino Pro Opta Ext D1608S enhances your Arduino Opta’s real-time control, monitoring and predictive maintenance applications with the addition of 16 programmable voltage inputs and 8 solid-state relays 24 VDC 2A.
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 inputs for your applications per each expansion added, programmable as digital 0-24 VDC or analog 0-10 V.
- Powerful outputs: 8 solid-state relays offering 24 VDC for 2A 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.

How to realize a servo and water sensor function using simple raw materials.
With the Earth’s population still on track to increase by another two billion people by the year 2050, finding ways to feed them without causing grave harm to the environment is a top priority. Currently, fish is one of the most widely consumed foods in the world, and a new technology called biofloc helps provide both a food source and environmental stabilizer to fishponds without the need for dangerous chemicals/processes. As part of element14’s Just Encase Design Challenge, Md. Khairul Taifur had the idea to create a device that could sit within a pond and report detailed telemetry for environmental markers, as well as correct minor water quality issues via the use of a heater and water pump. His system is based around a MKR WAN 1300, which is responsible for collecting data from each sensor and then sending it to the cloud with its onboard LoRaWAN module. To make the system independent from an external power source, Taifur included a small 5V solar panel, power management board, and rechargeable battery pack. Once his firmware had been finalized, everything was carefully placed inside of a waterproof electrical box and sealed to only expose the sensors. This biofloc monitoring system has great potential as a proof-of-concept of how future fish farms might operate in a more sustainable manner. You can read more about the project here on element14.
