Martin,

Just to close the loop, it turns out I made a mistake in designing the 
cable.  Instead of

Binary ID    Cable harness
---------    -------------
    00        The lab cable
    01        1cm receiver.
    10        3mm receiver.
    11        A spare cable

as you had originally specified, it wound up

Binary ID    Cable harness
---------    -------------
    00        The lab cable
    01        3mm receiver.
    10        1cm receiver.
    11        A spare cable

The cleanest thing to do is for me to fix my mistake.  In just a few 
minutes, both the cable documentation will match your original 
specification, and hopefully it will boot up as ccb1cm.
