QBasic communication through COM1 port? (reader question)

Question from QB Express reader Eric:
Hi Pete,
I am going to try to use Qbasic to talk to a piece of equipment through the COM1 port via RS232. I did this may years ago but I have forgot how to do this. I will need to both read and write information. Can you tell me the correct command, format and if I need to do any variable setups.
Thanks,
Eric
