Add wireless connectivity to your micro PLC projects with the Blues Notecard! Wireless for PLC is a plug-and-play expansion compatible with the Arduino® Opta® that adds Cellular and WiFi connectivity, powered by the Notecard and Notehub.
The Wireless for PLC Expansion Module can quickly add Cellular and WiFi capability to any Arduino® Opta® PLC inexpensively with a pluggable module that uses the standard AUX expansion port on the Opta®, and can be daisy-chained with other Expansion modules. The Opta® communicates with the Expansion and its Notecard via I2C and can leverage either the Blues' note-arduino library or Arduino® IoT Cloud SDK for configuring the Notecard and its backhaul.
