Following the example illustrated [https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/iot-edge/how-to-deploy-modules-vscode here], the first step is to create a <code>deployment.json</code> file. In this case, the [https://azuremarketplace.microsoft.com/en-us/marketplace/apps/microsoft.edge-simulated-temperature-sensor-ga ''Simulated Temperature Sensor'' module] will be deployed to the edge device.
The following picture shows the file and the ''Azure IoT Hub Devices'' section in the bottom left corner. This section in turn lists the connected edge devices—<code>sbcx</code> in the example—and the their running modules (TBD<code>edgeAgent</code> and <code>edgeHub</code> in the example).

After refreshing the lists of the modules associated with the <code>sbcx</code> device, a new module named ''SimulatedTemperatureSensor'' should appear:

There are different ways to verify that the ''Simulated Temperature Sensor'' module is sending data to the cloud. In VSC, it is possible to monitor the by clicking the ''Start Monitoring Built-in Event Endpoint'' item in the drop-down menu associated with the <code>sbcx</code> device:

In the output console, the messages relating to the transmission of such data will be visible.
