Hello @nantes.vanwyk,

Welcome to the DigiKey TechForum.

Yes, the Arduino Opta is a good candidate for your application. Let me add a few thoughts:

- Consider Arduino’s [cloud services](https://docs.arduino.cc/software/plc-ide/tutorials/plc-ide-cloud-support/)

- Consider adding [OPTA’s Analog module](https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/arduino/AFX00007/24625242) to the Opta WiFi for the 4-20 mA input signals

- Consider the [material we have prepared](https://forum.digikey.com/t/getting-started-with-digikeys-arduino-opta-kit/46079) for the Arduino Opta.

Best wishes,

APDahlen
