pins layout on umbilical cord

I want to order custom umbilical from PS to a control unit of the preamp.
Manufacturer of the custom umbilicals needs to know a layout of the OEM umbilical, that is being replaced.
Since I am eclectically- challenged individual, I would like to ask for the guidance.
I do have Fluke multimiter, and to my understanding it should be in Ohm setting to check continuity b/w female and main connectors (they are XLR type connectors) on the PS and control unit to make sure Pin 1 of male corresponds to #1 hole in the female.
So should i do it b/w two chassis or on the actual OEM umbilical cable?
Please help!!!

Since you are having a "cable" made, you need to take the readings from the OEM cable itself. As long as it is the correct cable anyway.

You could also contact the preamp manufacturer and ask how it is wired.
