Collect Incoming Bolt Serial Data on a Schedule

Gather serial data during routine checks without manually opening a device session.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Bolt IoT Serial Read

Reads incoming serial data from a device.

Why this helps

Serial output can be overlooked when it requires someone to check the device manually.

  • Retrieve incoming serial data at a chosen cadence.
  • Send the returned data to a consistent run report destination.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Agiled and Bolt IoT once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis what to do from any channel.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to read incoming serial data from the specified Bolt device and report the result with any Agiled context you provide.
  • 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with a device whose UART has been initialized and data is available.

Questions about this workflow

What needs to be set up first?

The device UART must have been initialized with serialbegin before the serial read action is used.

Does the schedule create serial data?

No. It reads incoming data that is available from the device when the automation runs.
