What's your use-case? Need it be automatic? 

Since you're designing the device and firmware as well, you could make
it user-cnfigurable on the device, and then it could be passed as a
parameter to the driver along with model ID, cell count, and so forth in
the handshake.

OTOH, if it's just a matter of using different key-bindings, you could
just write alternate kti files.
