FINDER OPTA ARDUINO
The range OPTA Arduino
The PLR Finder OPTA Arduino combines the industrial experience of Finder with the technological innovation of Arduino, for a truly unique product on the market. Designed with ease of implementation in mind, it takes advantage of the vast range of libraries and sketches/software available in the Arduino Pro platform, for any type of application.
This contributes significantly to reducing programming times, also saving several days, depending on the complexity of the application. These devices can be programmed for free both with traditional IEC61131-3 languages (Ladder, FBD, etc.) and with the Arduino IDE open source language. The OPTA Arduino range includes three different versions, LITE, PLUS and ADVANCED.

Unico sul mercato
Finder OPTA è un prodotto unico sul mercato per la sua connettività ultra sicura a livello hardware, per la possibilità di eseguire aggiornamenti firmware OTA (Over-the-Air), per la versatilità di programmazione (tramite software open source o linguaggi PLC standard) e per le sue opzioni di connettività.
Expansion modules
OPTA expansion modules multiply the application possibilities of the programmable logic relay for unprecedented versatility of use. Expansion modules are designed with the aim of adding inputs and/or outputs to different automation projects-with a maximum limit of five modules available for all OPTA versions (Lite, Plus, Advanced)-by increasing inputs (for up to 80 inputs in the digital version and 30 inputs for the analog version) and outputs (up to 40 outputs for the digital version and 30 for the analog version). On each device there is an auxiliary port (AUX) to connect the expansion modules to the OPTA.
Expansions available for greater flexibility of use
The OPTA range includes two expansion modules in digital version and one expansion module in analog version.
