For example, to use an interactive Python session to upload datapoints related to velocity,
temperature, and the state of the emergency door:
1. Select a device in Remote Manager that is configured to allow shell access to the admin user,
and click Actions > Open Console. Alternatively, log into the Connect IT 4 local command line
as a user with shell access.
Depending on your device configuration, you may be presented with an Access selection
menu. Type shell to access the device shell.
2. At the shell prompt, use the python command with no parameters to enter an interactive
Python session:
# python

3. Import the datapoint submodule and other necessary modules:
>>> from digidevice import datapoint
>>> import time
>>>
4. Upload the datapoints to Remote Manager:
>>> datapoint.upload("Velocity", 69, units="mph")
>>> datapoint.upload("Temperature", 24, geo_location=(54.409469, -1.718836,
129))
>>> datapoint.upload("Emergency_Door", "closed", timestamp=time.time())
5. Use Ctrl-D to exit the Python session. You can also exit the session using exit() or quit().
You can also upload multiple datapoints:
1. Select a device in Remote Manager that is configured to allow shell access to the admin user,
