Your gridBox serial number (SN) is more than just a random ID. It contains specific details about when your device was manufactured, its hardware version, and its configuration.
You can find the serial number on the sticker attached to your gridBox (e.g., I374-600-000-000-002-P-X).

[Date Code]-[Hardware Version]-[Unique ID]-[Status]-[Type]
