Send a serial command after a relevant page update
Have Notis check a page on a schedule and send your predefined ASCII command when the result qualifies.
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
A web update that requires a device response can mean repeated checking and a forgotten follow-up command.
- Links a page condition to a specific serial command.
- Sends the command only when your instruction's condition is met.
- Keeps the command result in the automation report.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Airtop and Bolt IoT once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation.
- 3Describe the page condition and the exact ASCII command to send to the specified device.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real page update and a device with UART initialized using serialbegin.
Questions about this workflow
Does the action initialize UART?
No. UART must already be initialized with serialbegin before sending serial data.
Can I have Notis invent the command based on the page?
Provide the command you want sent and explain the condition for sending it. Do not rely on an unspecified device protocol.
