Dear Paul! I'm on Ubuntu 12.04.5 LTS amd64 with binary Scilab 5.5.2 amd64.
I downloaded Arduino toolbox from link in this comment (Francisco-Ronay Lopez-estrada -- July 16, 2015, 07:51:43 PM <https://atoms.scilab.org/toolboxes/arduino/1.1#comment2474>) - Arduino linux3.zip <https://mega.co.nz/#%21T1RynDrI%21icxPWmHxbNhqPnIXpHr2wIxhipXWeNb0hRSDHu00RQQ> . I extracted this zip-archive to my SCIHOME directory ( /home/nikolay/.Scilab/scilab-5.5.2), then launched builder.sce and then added loader.sce to autoload by creating /home/nikolay/.Scilab/scilab-5.5.2/.scilab with the following line: exec('/home/nikolay/.Scilab/scilab-5.5.2/linux3/loader.sce',-1); Then I restarted Scilab and Arduino toolbox loaded with messages: Startup execution: loading initial environment Start Arduino Load macros Load serial dll Shared archive loaded. Link done. Load palette Load help Load demos Arduino Version: 1.2 --> In Ubuntu your user should be a member of dialout group - sudo adduser $USER dialout . For better Scilab usability I suggest to use light window manager theme, for example Radiance. After this you can use Arduino with Xcos. You can vote for official linux port of Arduino toolbox on forge <http://forge.scilab.org/index.php/p/arduino/issues/1556/>. Hope this helps. -- *With best regards,Ph.D., assistant professor at MPEI <http://mpei.ru/lang/en/Pages/default.aspx>,IEEE member,maintainer of Mathieu functions toolbox for Scilab <http://atoms.scilab.org/toolboxes/Mathieu/>,Nikolay Strelkov.* 2016-09-05 23:30 GMT+03:00 <[email protected]>: > Scilab 5.5.2 for me ... the latest stable release > > > ----- Mail original ----- > De: "Samuel Gougeon" <[email protected]> > À: "Users mailing list for Scilab" <[email protected]> > Envoyé: Lundi 5 Septembre 2016 21:43:36 > Objet: Re: [Scilab-users] Scilab - Arduino > > > > Hello, > > Le 05/09/2016 21:22, Claus Futtrup a écrit : > > > > Hi Paul > > It's not necessary to download and install offline. > > When you look at the website for the module, it says: > > > Category > Instruments Control > This means, open ATOMS, go to Instruments Control ... that's where you > should be able to find the Arduino package. > > I haven't checked if it exist in ATOMS there ... but if you don't find the > package there, please report it as a bug to Scilab. > . > I guess that Paul is running either Scilab 5.5 or Scilab 6, whereas the > "arduino" module is not yet packaged for Scilab 6 (neither the 1.2 nor the > 1.3 releases): "This toolbox is in the process of being built" => no binary > available...
