Serial numbers
This guide applies directly to counters with the serial prefixes listed in Table 6-1.
(See also Figure 6-1.)
The serial number prefix for your counter is the first 5 character positions in the
serial number shown on the counter (for example: MY50000125). The counter
serial number suffix (for example: MY50000125) is the production number of the
counter. The whole number (MY50000125) is the actual serial number of the
counter. See Figure 6-1.
