Send a Bolt serial command and capture the reply
Keep a serial request and its immediate response together for easier follow through.

Bolt IoT Serial Write & Read
Tool to send serial data and read the response on a bolt device. use when you need to transmit ascii data over uart and capture its reply immediately.
Why this helps
Sending a serial command and then fetching its reply separately creates room to lose the context.
- Send ASCII data and read the response immediately.
- Keep request and reply in the same run.
- Send the report to a channel you already check.
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.
- 3Describe sending the requested ASCII data to the named device and reporting its immediate reply; 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
Does this action capture a reply immediately?
Yes. The listed action sends serial data and reads the response on the Bolt device.
What is required before the run?
UART must already be initialized with serialbegin, and the request should include the ASCII data to send.
