On the chip with the "MX" marking on it,  what f/w version does it show
(usually v5.02 or v5.10)?  I have a couple of CM3's configured for TAIP
output, but I have the programs for switching them to TSIP or NMEA.

Does the which-protocol get saved away someplace or does it start fresh each
power up?

I went looking for the v5.10 on an MX chip, but I found v8.08.  After a bit
of head scratching, I figured out that I had grabbed the wrong board out of
the box.  My notes say it's a ACE-III.  It looks like the same mechanicals.
Do you know if the protocol is real-close or just similar enough to use the
same name?
