Abstract
A device (L) for transferring data between heterogeneous apparatuses (1, 2, 3 and 4) and one or more computers (18 and 19). An interface (20) is automatically configured by loading and executing specific protocol conversion programs and adapting the physical link on the basis of recognition of the connecting cable (5, 6, 7, 8, 16 or 17) between the interface and the computer(s) and apparatus(es) to be connected. The connecting cable is recognized by entering a key (k5, k6, k7, k8, k16 or k17) in the cable in the form of one or more electrical or electronic components providing nonambiguous identification of the cable.
