This is more of a computer related question than a Photography question and can turn out to be very involved and complicated. I suggest you "Google" something like 'camera serial port' and scan the results. If you post a question on a related forum, you will have to provide information that you neglected to provide here. What's relevant is:
- did it work before or is this a new setup?
- what is your computer platform (PC or Mac?
- what is your operating system (Windows & version, Mac OS X)?
- do you know your current COM port assignments?
Here's one search result that might get you started (it may be too old for your OS):
