This is almost becomming a FAQ.

If you just want simple interaction, you can use one of the Ada.*_IO
packages to open the device ("COM1:" or "COM2:" most likely, depending
on your PC's port setup) as a file.

If you want more control (eg: setting timeouts) then you will need to
make Win32 system calls just like any C programmer. To link to the Win32
system calls, you will need a set of Ada/Win32 bindings for the
routines you want to use. If you are feeling mildly adventerous, you can
write own. Otherwise, I believe you can get a set from www.adapower.com
