There are several programs you can use: MMTTY, MixW, Fldige and probably others.
You will need a couple of cables to interface your computer with the rig. 

I use MMTTY myself. There is a great "getting started" website at:

You will no doubt have questions and this is the place to ask them. 

I have a Pro3 myself - great rig for RTTY.
