You should have a look at  the HART toolbox (Hardware Access in Real-Time): 
http://hart.sourceforge.net/

As far as I know it works also with Scilab 5.41.

We use it all the time to control hardware with "soft realtime" (Scicos/Xcos 
running) or "hard realtime" ( RTAI executable generated from the Scicos/Xcos 
diagram).

Hope that helps.
