TI Graphic Calculator

Hi everybody.
a few days ago i surfed a website selling a robot kit which is
controlled by the Texas Instrument Graphical Display Calculators. it
looks interesting, and i've tried to make one using a bs2 controlled
robot. My calc is a TI-83 Plus.
however, the bs2 doesn't seem to be able to recieve data from the
calc. i've tried using the serin, shiftin, pulsin, and even simply by
observing the state of the pin connected to the calc. none of them
worked.
anybody got any idea how to make the calc communicate with the bs2?
thanks.
