Fru Identification For Cto, Cmv, And Gav Products - Lenovo ThinkPad X41 Tablet MT 1866 Hardware Maintenance Manual

3-digit model is provided to the customer to place orders
(Example: 1829-W15). A CMV is a special bid offering.
Therefore, it is NOT generally announced.
v The MTM portion of the machine label is the 4-digit MT
and 3-digit model, where model = "CTO" (Example:
1829-CTO). The PRODUCT ID portion of the machine
label is the 4-digit MT and 3-digit CMV model (Example:
1829-W15).
v The PEW record is the 4-digit MT and 3-digit model,
where model = "CTO" (Example: 1829-CTO).
v eSupport will show both the CTO and CMV machine
type models (Example: 1829-CTO and 1829-W15 will be
found on the eSupport site.)
v The HMM will have the 4-digit MT and 3-digit CTO
model only (Example: 1829-CTO). Again, CMVs are
custom models and are not found in the HMM.
General Announce Variant (GAV)
This is a standard model (fixed configuration). GAVs are
announced and offered to all customers. The MTM portion
of the machine label is a 4-digit MT and 3-digit model,
where model = a "fixed part number", not "CTO" (Example:
1829-F1U). Also, PEW, eSupport, and the HMM will list
these products under the same fixed model number.
FRU identification for CTO, CMV, and
GAV products
There are three information resources to identify which
FRUs are used to support CTO, CMV, and GAV products.
These sources are PEW, eSupport, and the HMM.
Using PEW
v PEW is the primary source for identifying FRU part
numbers and FRU descriptions for the key commodities
for CTO, CMV and GAV products at a MT - serial
number level. An example of key commodities are hard
disk drives, system boards, microprocessors, Liquid
Crystal Displays (LCDs), and memory.
v Remember, All CTO and CMV products are loaded in
PEW under the 4-digit MT and 3-digit model, where
model = "CTO" (Example: 1829-CTO). GAVs are loaded
in PEW under the 4-digit MT and 3-digit model, where
model = a "fixed part number", not "CTO" (Example:
1829-F1U).
v PEW can be accessed at the following Web site:

Click on MACHINE LOOKUP, followed by WARRANTY
INFORMATION. Input the MT and the Serial number
and the list of key commodities will be returned in the
PEW record under COMPONENT INFORMATION.
