I have several versions of the Model M here that will

built until the early 90s could auto-switch between the two protocols.
Don't tell the 5160 I have at work that it has a Model M on it. (And
it's not the funny Model M without the indicator lights. That one
without the indicator lights (1390120) was specifically made for the XT.)
Interesting--I've several variations of the M here. I'll have to try
them individually on a 5160 to see which do and which don't work.
Since the first attempt with one didn't, I'd assumed that it would
hold for all models of the model M (submodels?). Apparently not.
Thanks,
