The location of your serial number may vary depending on the model of your device. Generally, the serial number is located at the bottom or back of the device. In some devices, the serial number location could be at the front or side panel (slide down the opener to view the serial number).

The following are possible locations of the serial number on your Rugged Scanners::
 
  • At the bottom of your device
 
NOTE In some instances, the serial numbers could be too small to read. Either use a magnifying glass or snap a picture of the serial number with your mobile phone and zoom in to read the serial number.
