Claim:
1. A system for customizing settings of an electronic device, the system comprising: a replaceable component having an optical member for receiving optical energy, the optical member having an optical characteristic that reduces an amount of the optical energy that leaves the optical member to a fraction of an amount of the optical energy received by the optical member; a support located on an outer casing of the electronic device, the replaceable component removably mountable on the support, the optical member positioned immobile relative to the support when the replaceable component is mounted on the support; an optical sensor including a detector positioned to receive the amount of the optical energy leaving the optical member when the replaceable component is mounted on the support; and a controller communicatively coupled to the optical sensor and operative to determine one or more predetermined settings to be applied to the electronic device based at least upon the fraction of the optical energy received by the detector relative to the amount of the optical energy received by the optical member, wherein the optical member includes a reflective member composed of a reflective material that reflects a fraction of the optical energy received by the optical member, the fraction of the optical energy reflected by the reflective material indicating the one or more predetermined settings.
