[BRLTTY] Is it possible for a script to execute brltty commands?

Hi all,
I have a pretty elaborate set of Bash scripts called lb (Less with
Bookmarks). These scripts display text files and keep track of
progress through them. One of the things I do is to make the print
cursor invisible unless input is being accepted. For example:
tput civis
makes the cursor invisible and
tput cnorm
makes it visible again.
Brltty has a similar command, CSRHIDE, which is a toggle and hides the
cursor in the currently active window. Because it's a toggle it could
get out of step with the print cursor, but I thought it'd be fun to
issue that command for both civis and cnorm. Is there a way to do
this?
Thanks,
