@Hostmos

 

Look at your serial number.

 

This is how you decrypt it:

  • The first two characters are the country code.
  • The third character is the code of the supply site.
  • The next three characters are the date of manufacture, the first digit is for the year the next two for the calendar week.
  • The last four characters are a sequential ID on that particular week.

 

Example :  CNU1234ABC

 

CN=China

 

U=The supply site.

 

1= The year 2011.

 

23 = 23 week of 2011.

 

4ABC = The sequential ID.

Thanjs, but if
"The next three characters are the date of manufacture, the first digit is for the year the next two for the calendar week."
With my serial CNGTH990EV i have TH9 and TH is not digits.

Plus if a change last symbol, hp-site serial helper wrote - not valid - so may be it is checksum??

Waiting for your help
