Olimex PIC-IO-C controlled directly from Adruino uno

[Schappy]

Hello;

Is it possible to control Olimex PIC-IO-C directly via +/-5V output from an Arduino Uno? Intention is to run real time accel/gyro roll data from Arduino, triggering the selected (wired from arduino)relay. Relay output wiring 110V max 4amp, so well within capacity of board relays. Relays controlling 110V solenoids, not motors.
We do not want to control via PC or program PIC.

Thanks for any input

PIC-IO-C is not possible, but you can control MOD-IO and MOD-IO2 via Arduino with no problem

Hello;

With the PIC-IO-C removed it is possible to wire directly (5V) analog into the 18 pin using the schematic. Signal from Arduino then controls the (12v) relays directly. Care should be taken to orient the 18pin PIC schematic and relays/ground. A bit rudimentary but works for intended purpose.

Thanks
