1.1 MODULE IDENTIFICATION
The module identification label can be found on the bottom of your Vanguard device. This label contains the product part
number, the serial number, FCC and IC IDs as well as carrier specific information that will be required when activating your
data account.
CDMA module identification labels contain the device ESN numbers. This number is required by your cellular carrier when
activating your data contract. The ESN number is provided in both decimal and Hex formats. The format required for
activation is carrier dependent.
GSM module identification lables contain an International Mobile Equipment Identity (IMEI) number shown in decimal
format. This number is used by the GSM network only to identify and validate the device. It has no permanent or semi-
permanent relation to the subscriber.
