TMK IBMPC converter recognizes it as a XT keyboard because the converter doesn't detect and recover parity error.

  • Deteciting parity error to send command(FE or FF) is need to communicate with the keyboard on AT protocol.
  • In general AT protocol is preferable to XT for keyboard functionality.
  • It would be useful for debug purpose if user can select protocol by some way or other.
