Yes, but like I said, you'll need to make a daughterboard or carrier board to provide isolated inputs and relay outputs. You can't simply connect those sensors directly to the GPIO pins.
Perhaps you should also take a look at either the Area SX18 and its I/O expanders, or over USB with the Phidgets. The latter has a nice set of interface kits with RFID and everything that should get you started. Dave cchechio <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: The alarm system don't exist.
