What exactly are you trying to do? I do not understand what iSeries
Access has to do with this. iAccess is TCP/IP based, and does not ever
make use of serial ports. What is a TN5250 application supposed to do
with scale data?
If your intent is to populate scale data into an input field on your
TN5250 screen, then you might need to look at DDE/EHLLAPI support, which
should let you write a program to receive scale data and pass it into
your screen buffer.
Perhaps this might help...

Why won't iSeries Access for Windows (aka client access) running on a
laptop, accept RS232 data from a scale? HyperTerminal on the same
laptop accepts the data. Same serial port in both cases.
