On the network LCDproc uses a text mode protocol between client and server.
Thus you can send LCD commands to a running LCDd by stuffing the commands into 
a telnet or netcat session that is connected to the server.
If your bash is compiled with redirectory to network devices built-in 
(I am not aware of any distribution shipping bash compiled this way),
then you do not even an external program.

But I guess it is a lot simpler to use a scripting language that is
capable of opening connections over the network.

Google says this is a graphics module.
Since LCDproc supports directory text-mode modules only,
there is no direct driver for this.

It might be supported by LCDproc's glcdlib meta-driver which 
allows to connect graphical LCDs to LCDproc.
See http://www.muresan.de/graphlcd/lcdproc/ for details

Hope it helps
Peter
