Send and read Bolt serial responses from Typeform
Give every submitted device request an immediate reply path.
Trigger
New Form Response
Triggers when a respondent completes and submits the form.
Action
Bolt IoT Serial Write & Read
Tool to send serial data and read the response on a bolt device. use when you need to transmit ascii data over uart and capture its reply immediately.
Why this helps
Sending a command without seeing the device response leaves work uncertain and creates another manual check.
- See command results immediately
- Reduce follow-up checks
- Keep request and reply together
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Typeform and Bolt iot in Notis once.
- 2Create an automation for the request and reply outcome.
- 3Tell Notis which ASCII message to send, which Bolt device to use, and how to report the immediate reply.
- 4Choose New Form Response as the trigger and select a report channel.
- 5Test with one real response after UART has been initialized.
Questions about this workflow
What does this workflow return?
It sends an ASCII serial message and reads the device response immediately.
Does the device need UART setup?
Yes, UART must be initialized before this action runs.
Can it flag an unexpected reply?
Yes, provide the expected reply or rule in your instruction so Notis can compare the returned data.

Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Analog Read
Tool to read the analog value from a specified pin on a bolt device. use when you need sensor readings (0–1023) after confirming the device is online.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Bolt IoT Digital Write
Tool to set a digital pin high or low on a specified bolt device. use when controlling actuators or leds via digital output.
New Form Response
Triggers when a respondent completes and submits the form.
Check Bolt device online status
Tool to check whether a specified bolt device is online. use when you need to verify device connectivity before sending commands (e.g., control signals). example: 'check if device bolt1234567 is online.'
