You can get a USB to RS232 converter at almost any PC outlet. You may need a special low lever driver though depending on how the program access the RS232 registers.

http://www.provantage.com/hawking-huc232s~7HAUK042.htm see this link for a USB to serial converter. I use this model for the exact application that you require.

You can also use the Bafo BF-810 USB to serial convertor. The company I work for wrote programming software for the S5s and we have tested and recommend the Bafo over everything else. This is the convertor that we have found worked best for that device. Go to www.bafo.com You can get it there.
