Abstract
A color measurement instrument wherein the communication protocol used by the instrument is determined by the cable attached to the instrument. The instrument includes a handheld unit having a control system capable of communicating in at least two different protocols through a common connector. This control system connector includes a set of pin-outs corresponding to each of the available protocols. The instrument also includes a cable having a connector mated with the control system connector. The pin-out of the cable connector corresponds to only one of the sets of pin-outs of the control system connector, so that the cable provides a communication pathway corresponding to only one of the available protocols.
