Scilab 2023.0.0 VISA Atoms Modul

Question

how can I install the VISA Modul in Scilab 2023.0.0 ?

Scilab 6.0.2 is working and installed automaticly atomsInstall('visa')

I get following Error:

--> atomsInstall('visa')
atomsInstallList: The package "visa" is not registered.
Please check on the ATOMS repository that it is available for Scilab 2023.0 on Windows.
If it is, run atomsSystemUpdate() before trying atomsInstall(..) again.

--> atomsSystemUpdate()
Scanning repository https://atoms.scilab.org/2023.0/TOOLBOXES/64 ... Done

Can you guide me, how to install it, using the zip file downloaded from

https://atoms.scilab.org/toolboxes/visa

I tried

--> atomsInstall("C:\Users\kwas\Downloads\visa_0.9.1-2.bin.x64.windows.zip")
bei Zeile   177 von Funktion atomsInstall ( C:\Users\kwas\AppData\Local\scilab-2023.0.0\modules\atoms\macros\atomsInstall.sci Zeile 193 )

The VISA toolbox is based on compiled (closed) source code and is not compatible with the latest version of Scilab: https://scilab.discourse.group/t/instrument-control/61
