Watch a Bolt analog value against a baseline
See meaningful sensor changes without checking raw numbers all day.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Analog Read
Tool to read the analog value from a specified pin on a bolt device. use when you need sensor readings (0–1023) after confirming the device is online.
Why this helps
Raw readings are hard to act on when no one has time to compare each value with a known baseline.
- Make sensor changes easier to spot
- Use your own known baseline
- Keep the report focused on exceptions
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect 1Password and Bolt IoT in Notis once.
- 2Create an automation named Analog baseline watch.
- 3Tell Notis to use the Bolt credentials, check the device is online, read the analog pin, and compare the result with the baseline and tolerance you provide.
- 4Pick a notis_cron schedule and choose a report channel.
- 5Test with one real reading and baseline.
Questions about this workflow
Where does the baseline come from?
You provide the baseline and tolerance in the automation instruction because the app does not supply them automatically.
Can it report only exceptions?
Yes. Ask for a quiet report when the value is within range and an exception summary outside it.
