A display interface system that uses a server-client approach. The server contains all of the necessary information regarding display information, while the client deals with the specific display type that it is connected to. The server contains generic descriptions of user interface screens which allow the server to be independent of specific display types. This allows one version of software to support many types of displays, rather than several software revisions for each display type, saving the software developer time, maintenance, and labor costs. A request-response communication system is used whereupon the client requests previous or next user display screens, system parameter requests, or updates from the server. The client requests screen information through a series of key-tag sequences, while the server controls the sequencing of the user display screens. The client is shielded from any knowledge of the contents of the screen and is only concerned with the fact that something is being displayed.

The present invention is a method and apparatus for computing color transformations of source images. It performs color transformations using a lookup table and a hashing block for referencing entries in the lookup table. The index generated by the hashing block is dependent on a first color value. A color encoding block is coupled to the lookup table for generating an encoded color value dependent on the first color value. The index produced by the hashing block is further dependent upon response characteristics of the human eye. The hashing block generates indexes referencing widely separated entries in the plurality of entries of the lookup table when first color values have small differences in value. A comparing block is coupled to the lookup table and the color encoding block for comparing the entry of the lookup table and the encoded color value to determine a match. A color calculation block is coupled to the lookup table for generating a second color value dependent on the first color value.

A micro-etalon having non-beveled outer edges may be mass-produced without suffering from expected breakage problems. Such a configuration allows etalons to be mass-produced, i. e. , on a wafer level. The mass-production preferably includes aligning spacer block strips to be diced with two reflective surfaces to form the etalon.
