Installing PyVISA without internet connection
In order to install PyVISA on your local machine you need the following:
- PyVISA 1.8 module
- Enum34 (if not already installed)
After download, unzip module files and run:
$ python setup.py install
‘pip’ is not recognized as an internal or external command
pip is already installed if you’re using Python 2 >=2.7.9 or Python 3 >=3.4. In case your pip command is not recognised by Windows CMD, then most probably the Python Scripts path is not set in the system variables:
You need to add the path of your pip installation to your PATH system variable. By default, pip is installed to C:\Python34\Scripts\pip (pip now comes bundled with new versions of python), so the path “C:\Python34\Scripts” needs to be added to your PATH variable.
To check if it is already in your PATH variable, type echo %PATH% at the CMD prompt
To add the path of your pip installation to your PATH variable, you can use the Control Panel or the setx command. For example:
setx PATH "%PATH%;C:\Python34\Scripts"Note: According to the official documentation, “[v]ariables set with setx variables are available in future command windows only, not in the current command window”. In particular, you will need to start a new cmd.exe instance after entering the above command in order to utilize the new environment variable.
