Before you give the CONNECT command, what does "show comm" say?
What is plugged in to /dev/ttyS0?
With what kind of cable? If it's a null-modem cable, which signals
are connected (and which signals are cross-connected or faked out)?
Maybe it needs to see certain signals, like CTS or DSR, before it will
send anything, and your cable is not providing them.
At what speed is it transmitting? Are you sure it's 19200? How do you
know it's transmitting anything at all?
