Serial port communication

We're running SCO Unix Openserver 5.05 and I'm having trouble with serial communication between the com2 serial port and a handheld device. Downloading data from Unix to the handheld works perfectly, but the other way around creates a major problem. I don't know whether it's a buffer overflow or what, but it looks as if the handheld sends the data faster than Unix can read it. Flowcontrol? Anybody? Please help.
Thanx.
