Reformatting the data can also be done in perl but since you have solved
that problem in awk, there is no need to use perl.

Sending your formatted data to the serial port can be done in the (bash)
shell. If you encounter problems (e.g. wrong file permissions) try to
solve it from the shell; I don't think using perl will help you.

Don't forget the '>' character:
cat foobar > /dev/ttyS0
