ARDBOX Analog, Arduino based PLC with ESP32 WiFi & Bluetooth LE
Versatile industrial automation
Integrated WiFi & BLE connectivity
Expansive I2C expandability
Arduino Leonardo programming
Supports multiple protocols
The ARDBOX Analog, Arduino based PLC w/ ESP32 WiFi & Bluetooth LE is a sophisticated programmable logic controller designed to facilitate industrial automation. This versatile device is equipped with a range of inputs and outputs, including eight 10-bit analog inputs and two optoisolated digital inputs, as well as ten optoisolated outputs. It supports a variety of industrial communication protocols such as I2C, RS232, RS485, and SPI, enhancing its compatibility with numerous digital systems.
The integration of WiFi and BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) connectivity within the PLC allows for wireless communication and data exchange over both short and long distances. The WiFi technology employed is based on established standards that ensure high-speed and secure communications, enabling devices to connect to the internet without the constraints of physical wiring. BLE operates within the 2400-2483.5 MHz range in the ISM 2.4 GHz frequency band, facilitating the exchange of data over short distances through designated Bluetooth channels.
The ARDBOX Analog PLC is part of the M-Duino family, which incorporates the ESP32 WiFi/Bluetooth module, offering a seamless and instant connection for programming and maintenance. The device is programmed using an Arduino LEONARD, which allows for immediate access via USB for setup and control. The standardized programming approach across the Basic Controllers family ensures that once one device is mastered, others can be easily configured using the same methodology.
This PLC is designed to be expandable, with the capability to connect up to 127 modules via the I2C connection, potentially offering a vast array of inputs and outputs in a master-slave configuration. The components are highly configurable, allowing for flexible and dynamic operation as either master or slave in a master-slave setup through I2C.
Please note that for specific I2C requirements, additional information is necessary.

Return Conditions
To qualify for a refund under the 30-day return policy, all of the following conditions must be met:
A valid Return Authorisation (RA) number must be obtained prior to returning the product. Returns without an RA number will be refused.
The RA number is valid for 30 days. The returned item must be received within that period.
The RA number must be included with the return.
Products must be returned in unused, unmodified condition (e.g., no scratches, alterations, missing parts, or signs of installation/use) and in their original packaging, suitable for resale.
Shipping fees are non-refundable. Return shipping costs are the responsibility of the customer, except in cases of a product confirmed defective through RobotShop's troubleshooting process or of a verified shipping error by RobotShop.
Refunds are processed within 7 days after receipt and inspection of the returned item.
A £100 cleaning fee may apply to domestic robots returned in used or unclean condition.
A 20% restocking fee may apply to large-quantity returns of items ordered specifically for the customer from the manufacturer or not part of RobotShop's standard inventory.
Return Exceptions
The following products are not eligible for return or refund under this policy:
Used, damaged, or modified products — Items that show signs of use, wear, or alteration, making them unsuitable for resale.
Consumables * — Use and wear-and-tear components, altered or depleted through use (e.g., batteries, belts, brushes, gears, filament, tyres, disposable bags, lubricants, greases, waxes, etc.). Not eligible for return once opened or used.
Perishables — Goods liable to deteriorate or expire rapidly. Not eligible for return.
Sealed goods (health or hygiene) — Items sealed for health-protection or hygiene reasons (e.g., masks, gloves, odour-absorbing products). Not eligible for return once unsealed.
Build-it-yourself products and items requiring customer assembly * — Including robots & kits, robot parts, and other products requiring assembly or soldering. Not eligible for return once assembled, soldered, or installed.
Digital Goods, Software, and Apps * — Final sale only, due to licensing restrictions.
Clearance Items * — Products identified as clearance or final sale, including end-of-life or discontinued items.
Custom-made, personalized, or special-order items — Products manufactured, configured, adapted, or built to the customer's own specifications and requirements.
On-Demand Items * — Standard catalogue products not stocked by RobotShop and ordered specifically to fulfil a customer request.
* United-Kingdom consumers retain their statutory Right of Cancellation on these items. Its exercise is subject to the conditions and exclusions set out in the Statutory Right of Cancellation, and any reimbursement may be reduced to reflect a loss in value resulting from handling beyond inspection.
How to Request a Return Authorisation (RA)
While the same return policy applies, these orders require a separate contact process for returns.
RobotShop Fulfilled Orders → submit a support ticket from your account under My Support Tickets.
Marketplace Vendor Orders → submit a ticket from your account under My Marketplace Tickets to contact the vendor directly.
Note: Marketplace vendor products are normally labelled with SKUs starting with RM, and identified on the product page with the mention "Sold and fulfilled by [Vendor Name]".
