The standard console on 3500 and 4700 was a 33. Burroughs called the
Supervisory Printer and Keyboard or SPO
I don't know what was standard on the 5000 or 5500
The machines at the time used BCL not ASCII or EBCDIC
Can't remember if the 33 was ASCII orthere was a converter some where or
it was a custom model that did BCL

Burroughs did use a Model 33 KSR as the console device on the B5500
computer, but of course this one is for some Honeywell machine.
Burroughs kept the "normal" Model 33 cover, but had their own set of
buttons in the call control unit.
