1. A robot control system comprising:
a first control device comprising first control processing circuitry; and
a second control device that is network-connected through a network to the first control device and comprises second control processing circuitry configured to control a robot,
wherein the first control processing circuitry is configured to:
generate a command that instructs a behavior of the robot by selecting one of a plurality of sources that are connectable to the first control processing circuitry and that provide information about generation of the command, the command being generated from the information from the one of the plurality of sources that is selected, and
transmit the command that is generated and a selection flag indicating the one of the plurality of sources that is selected, to the second control device, and
the second control processing circuitry is configured to:
receive the command and the selection flag,
select a parameter set from among a plurality of parameter sets corresponding to the plurality of sources, based on the selection flag, and
generate a command value for driving each axis of a plurality of axes of the robot, based on the command that is received and the parameter set that is selected, so as to provide the behavior instructed by the command.
