The example code I've seen for this connects two devices: the CDC implementation in the USB hardware, and the RS232 interface on the SCI device.
You should first get that example working unchanged, which will give you the equivalent of a USBserial dongle. Then rip out the code that drives the SCI (RS232) device and use the data in your own application instead. You might need to implement some buffering in the interface.
