Hermann:

It should be possible to open a serial port as a regular device and
throw bits at it, but for reliable access and control you have to leave
the Java arena and use native code.

http://www.sc-systems.com has a nice package for working with serial
devices through Java and they have it for quite a few platforms, now. 
You might want to investigate their wares.
