need help with "SerialPort" module

[sm]

Hi,

I need to write a very simple RS232 script that sends a string (command) to
my
hardware, and receives the messages sent back for my hardware. I found the
SerialPort_0.19 module
However, I have not found much of documentation regarding the module. I want
to know if
any one has sample code on how to do a simple send and simple receive. So, I
can use to get up to speed
quickly.........

Thanks in advance.

Here are two examples from code I've written:
