ES511 System Technical Specifications
Device ID (DID) and Serial Number
Each device is assigned a unique Device ID (DID) and Serial Number. These identifiers are used for inventory management, registration, and customer support. The DID contains key hardware and manufacturing information, allowing customers and internal teams to identify the device model and configuration.
Device IDs are 17 characters long and follow the following format.
Example of an DID is - EC1G5AABCDEAABBCC
Description
The first two characters of the DID represent the Type Code, which identifies the product model. Here in this example, EC type code denotes product model EdgeFocus.
Third character Revision is a single character that indicates the hardware revision of the device.
Fourth character shows the Manufacturer Code. Refer the manufacturer codes below. In this example, G denotes the device was manufactured by GLiNet.
K | K4 (Itasca) |
T | Tecnova |
A | Astronics |
G | GLiNet |
The next two characters denote the date - years from 2020 + month. For example:
1A | 2021-10 |
1C | 2021-12 |
23 | 2022-03 |
2A | 2022-10 |
33 | 2023-03 |
The next 5 characters denotes the configuration. These 5 characters are unique to each Model.
The last 6 characters are serial number. For KonnectOpen devices, this is the primary MAC address of the device.
