Example Code for Arduino - Electric Solenoid Lock Control (FIT0620)

This project demonstrates how to control the FIT0620 Electric Solenoid Lock using an Arduino board (DFRduino UNO) with a digital relay module. Users will learn how to wire the lock, control it via the relay, and monitor the lock status using the feedback signal.

Hardware Preparation

DFRduino UNO x1
Electric solenoid lock x1
12V Power adapter x1
Digital relay module (Arduino compatible) x1
Dupont wires x n

Software Preparation

Arduino IDE

Wiring Diagram

Control the electric solenoid lock via a digital relay and 12V power adapter. Then the feedback wire will pass the lock status to the board DFRduino UNO.

Num	Label	Description
1	Signal Wire	Signal ON/OFF
2	GND	-
3	VCC	+
4		Ground the black wire, connect the green wire to D6

  digitalWrite(Relay, LOW);             
  delay(2000);
   
}

Result

The electric solenoid lock is unlocking in every 4s. In Arduino serial monitor, the output is 0 when unlocked and 1 when locked.
