Winegard 2-WAY SATELLITE INTERNET SYSTEM Product Manual page 64

8.2.2 - Serial Number
There are several serial numbers assigned to all 2-Way antenna systems manufactured
by Winegard.
The antenna itself has 2 serial numbers on it, one on the Feed Arms to serialize the
mechanical antenna itself and one on the ODU.
The IDU serial number is located on the back of the main controller housing near the
rear panel connections.
All serial numbers start with the model number of the system followed by the serial
number.
8.2.3 - System Identification
The System ID is a software model number flashed onto the ODU to tell the ODU how it
should move the motors based on the type of antenna it is controlling.
The ID is stored in the Outdoor Control Unit.
This System ID is important for troubleshooting purposes and can be viewed on the
"VERSIONS" screen in the GUI.
The information below describes how to obtain the System ID.
1. Turn the controller on.
2. Allow the controller to boot to the Main Menu screen.
