Note: The labeling scheme described below was not consistently used for modules produced before 2014, however the serial number setting scheme applies to all AMC13.

Every AMC13 consists of a stack of 3 boards, numbered T1, T2, T3 with T1 being the right-most board when the module is oriented as it is installed in the crate. Each board has a serial number for book-keeping purposes, but only the T2 board's serial number is electrically significant.

Each board has a label attached which looks like one of the examples below. These are QR codes which may be scanned with an app on most smart phones, and decode to a URL such as http://db.amc13.info/B.cgi?A0054 for the label on the right. The URL should connect to a database with board information on the AMC13 web site.


T3 board barcode	Module serial number barcode

The serial numbers for the 3 boards and the module are all different, though the last 3 digits may match when the modules are first assembled. The label with the "SN-xxxx" is the module serial number and and should be used to report problems or for inventory purposes.

The details of the label marking and URL are given below.
