By default, opening the command console should be pretty easy, but it does depend on what sort of keyboard you’re using. The default keys are the ^ key (found by hitting the shift and 6 key) or the ° key if you’re using an interenational keyboard (which should be in the same place.) If that doesn’t work, try the ` key (the one under escape.) Just remember, the console isn’t availablein Iron Man Mode, so make sure to check what mode you’re playing if the console won’t show up.
