How do terminals connect to VM/370?

I think I have DMKRIO somewhat understood.  Right now I have 16 3277-2s starting at 0C0, and 7 3278-4s starting at 1C0.

If I connect using the wc3270 emulator defined as a model 2, it happily connects at 0C0, and if I run a second copy, it connects at 0C1, and so on.  This is working as I expect.

But when I try to connect using the wc3270 emulator defined as a model 4, it tries to connect at 0C0 (or whatever the next available address is) and I never get the VM logo screen because (I assume) I am trying to connect a 3278-4 to a 3277-2 port.

If I explicitly specify the address (i.e. 1C0) then the 3278-4 connects correctly.

Is there any way to set things up so I get the "next one that fits" 3270 connection?
