Review incoming Bolt serial data on a schedule

Collect serial data on a routine cadence and make it easier to review alongside your workflow.

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 checks can slip when they rely on someone remembering to retrieve data manually.

  • Retrieve serial data on a recurring schedule.
  • Keep the results in a run report channel.
  • Reduce manual polling for incoming data.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Agility CMS and Bolt IoT once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation from Automations, New Automation, or by asking Notis in any channel.
  • 3Specify the Bolt device, the recurring timing, and how to report the serial data.
  • 4Select the schedule trigger and choose a report channel.
  • 5Test after UART has been initialized with serialbegin on the device.

Questions about this workflow

Does this initialize UART?

No. The listed serial read action retrieves incoming serial data after UART has been initialized with serialbegin.

What if no serial data is available?

The action can only retrieve available incoming data. Review the run report and ensure the device setup and UART initialization are ready.
