Dynamic byte order determination for robotic component

A system comprising:

• one or more processors;
• memory;
• a controller, having a native byte order type, stored in the memory and executable by the one or more processors to:
• generate controls, in the native byte order type, for a robotic component;
• send an initial control, in the native byte order type, for the robotic component;
• and
• determine if a reply is received from the robotic component in response to the initial control;
• and
• a translation component stored in the memory and executable by the one or more processors to:
• store a designation for the robotic component based at least in part on whether the reply was received from the robotic component;
• translate a subsequent control into a non-native byte order type responsive to the designation indicating a byte order type of the robotic component different from the native byte order type;
• and
• send the subsequent control to the robotic component.

One or more computer-readable media storing computer-executable instructions that, when executed on one or more processors, performs acts comprising:

• generating controls in a first byte order type for a robotic component;
• receiving a control for the robotic component;
• accessing a designation for the robotic component to determine a byte order type for the robotic component;
• translating the control into a second byte order type if the first byte order type is different than the byte order type of the robotic component;
• and
• sending the control to the robotic component.
