Python modules

The IX15 supports Python 3.6 and provides you with the ability to run Python applications on the device interactively or from a file. It also offers extensions to manage your IX15:

• The digidevice module provides platform-specific extensions that allow you to interact with the device’s configuration and interfaces.
  The following submodules are included with the digidevice module:
  • XBee: digidevice.xbee

  • LEDs: digidevice.led

  • SMS: digidevice.sms

  • GPS: digidevice.location

  • Digi Remote Manager:
    • digidevice.datapoint
    • digidevice.device_request
    • digidevice.name
  • Device configuration: digidevice.config
  • Command line interface: digidevice.cli
  • Access runtime database: digidevice.runt
  • Set the maintenance window: digidevice.maintenance

  • Application Monitor API: digidevice.appmonitor

• The XBee Python Library is also integrated so you can work with the local and remote XBee devices in your network.
• Use the Python serial module—pySerial—to access the serial ports.
• PyModbus, a full Modbus protocol implementation.
• Eclipse Paho MQTT Python client enables applications to connect to an MQTT broker to publish messages, and to subscribe to topics and receive published messages.
