Send a Bolt serial command on a schedule
Schedule a repeatable device message and let Notis report each run.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Bolt IoT Serial Write
Sends serial data to a device.
Why this helps
Routine device commands can get lost among competing tasks when they depend on manual follow-up.
- Send the same specified ASCII message on a schedule.
- Reduce repeated manual device interaction.
- Track command attempts through run reports.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Agility CMS and Bolt IoT once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation through Automations, New Automation, or by asking Notis from any channel.
- 3Describe the Bolt device, ASCII message, and recurring timing in one instruction.
- 4Pick the schedule trigger and where run reports should go.
- 5Test one run after UART has been initialized on the device.
Questions about this workflow
Will this capture a device response?
No. This action sends serial data. Use the serial write and read action to capture an immediate response.
What setup does the device need?
UART must be initialized before sending ASCII data over serial.
