You have to enable it using the PS2 'DOS' command (the Windows one won't
work, for whatever reason).  Once it's probably enabled/configured, it
acts like any other normal serial port.  (It's a pain to get it working
right, since it involves dozens of reboots in order to understand what
exactly the configuration *should* be.  From memory, it wasn't as
obvious as it could have been.)
