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
Sensor checks get delayed when the request is buried in email and the device dashboard is elsewhere.
- Bring sensor requests into the same flow as email.
- Retrieve an analog value from the specified pin.
- Receive the result in your chosen Notis report channel.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Agent mail and Bolt iot once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3Describe in one instruction which device and analog pin to read when a new email requests a sensor check.
- 4Pick New Email Received as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real email that identifies the device and pin.
