LED badge programming via Linux. How?

There is an LED badge.
Connected via USB.
Recognized by the system as:
Prolific Technology, Inc. PL2303 Serial Port
Under windows there is a program for loading and there, in principle, everything works.
Essence of a question: how "on the fly" to program the text of a badge?
For example, display the system time.
Existing python solutions recognize the device, report that ALL DONE, but in fact no change.
Who faced with such a device?

https://github.com/KuyaMarc/ledbadge
https://github.com/dcolli/badgeup
for example.
/dev/ttyUSB0 (badge connected) is recognized, the script writes about the successful completion of the operation.
In fact, only what was loaded from under windows remains in the badge.

You should at least indicate the model ...
It's easy to do: put a port monitor under Windows, see what the native program writes there, implement the same functionality on Linux.
