How to determine: XT, AT or autoswitching?

I'm trying to determine whether one of my boards is XT, AT or autoswitching. I tried uploading a "force AT" and "force XT" protocol to the Soarer's I'm using but the board works flawlessly in both cases. So it occurred to me that I had no idea how to actually distinguish between them xD . Does anyone know a good test that might help this? Cheers!

I assume it has a DIN plug to accommodate such confusion. Plug it into a PS/2 port; if it works it's either AT or auto switching. If not it's XT. Then plug it into the Orihalcon-soarer set to XT, if it works its auto switching; if not, AT.

I tried it with the PS/2 port and it doesn't work, but it works flawlessly with the Orihalcon's set to XT and with it set to AT.

Also for some reason every keyboard sends XT scancodes over my Orihalcon's Oo .

I think you can use TMK PS/2 or XT converter firmware for the purpose, they are compatible with Soarer's in terms of hardware and support only one protocol respectively.
