Many thanks. I'll take a quick look online just to see if I can save you
the trouble. I'm surprised at how little documentation there is for this
thing.
As a general rule, does anyone know -- if you have a single board computer
like this with serial connector, is that 'live' all the time? Or do you
usually have to invoke a program in order for a terminal to connect to it
and use it?

>From all the SBCs that I know, the standard serial port
is always active. The on-board monitor with very basic
commands uses it as only means of communication.
After reset the monitor will "print" possible a one-line
identification and on the next line some form of prompt.
Could be * or . or > or - or whatever.
You need to know the com ports settings, but it prints
an ID line you can try several baudrates. 9600 is a good
start.
If you want 6800 info, ask. I can dream 6800 opcodes!
INX=$08, LDA # =$86, DEX=$09, STAindexed =$A6. etc.
Depending on the RAM size, I have a StarTrek version
in 6800 assembler that uses a serial port ... IIRC, it
is some 1.5k
