OK.

>How will I know what COM port it will look like on either end?

It will be determined by the address you assign in the BIOS, just like a
hardware COM port. 3F8 will be COM1 and 2F8 will be COM2. If you think
of the IR part of the hardware as a modem it might be easier to
understand. Think of the IR transceiver as attached to a standard COM
port, similar to how you would connect a modem. The COM port still
operates the same.
