Notis

Collect recurring Bolt analog sensor readings

Get a regular sensor snapshot without reopening the device tools every time.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

Action

Analog Read

Reads the analog value from a device pin.

Why this helps

Repeated manual sensor checks interrupt focused work and make it harder to notice changing values over time.

  • Collect a reading on a recurring schedule.
  • Check device connectivity before reading the pin.
  • Receive the analog value, which ranges from 0 to 1023.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Bolt IoT once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation from any channel or Automations, New Automation in the portal.
  • 3Tell Notis: check the specified Bolt device online and, if online, read the specified analog pin and report the value and check time.
  • 4Choose the notis_cron trigger and set the recurring schedule.
  • 5Choose where run reports should go and test with one real device and pin.
