Bolt IoT Serial Read
Tool to read incoming serial data from a bolt device. use when you've initialized uart with serialbegin and need to retrieve serial data.
Why this helps
Retrieving serial output can break focus when the request arrives in another conversation.
- Retrieve incoming serial data on demand.
- Keep the UART prerequisite clear in the automation prompt.
- Send results to your selected report channel.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect 2chat and Bolt IoT once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to read incoming serial data from the named device and report it; note UART must already be initialized with serialbegin.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real request after UART is initialized.
Questions about this workflow
What must be configured before the serial read?
The action is for retrieving serial data after UART has been initialized with serialbegin.
Does this action send serial data?
