I haven't fully checked you code or you server's setup ...

However, you are missing the 'LAT connect'.
Issue a QIO with func= IO$_TTY_PORT + IO$M_LT_CONNECT
before trying to read something from the port.

You could also _output_ something to the port before reading -
it will then do an implicit 'connect', but you gadget behind
the server might not like that.

I think this is described in the "I/O User's Guide".
