It would be easier if you could just post a picture of your instrument or just tell us the brand as most are one type or another. Your instrument is most likely a single vent mechanism as 90% of altos are.
The differences are:
Manual:
Two separate independent levers right next to each other. This means that unlike on Bb clarinet you will have to move your thumb between the two. You would know if you had this.
Automatic single vent:
One register vent and one vent for Bb. The Bb vent opens when you take your thumb off of the F key or depress the A key.
Automatic double vent:
Two separate register vents for an improved clarion. The instrument will switch between the vents when you lift your right hand 3rd finger. If you hold the register key and toggle the RH3 touchpiece you will see the register mechanism move. If your instrument doesn’t have a long rod going up the back it is not this type.
