DD

 =  two digit day of manufacture 

YY

 =  last two digits in year of manufacture 

TT

 =  two-digit tracking code (usually 00, can be changed to track special circumstances) 

0L = Mega-Lease 

GG

 =  two-digit code representing game series/model 

00 = Force Classic 

53 = Vibe Display (Coin) 

81 = eVo (Coin) 

10 = Force Elite 

54 = Vibe Processor (Coin) 

82 = eVo (Bill & Coin) 

20 = Force Radion 

60 = Megatouch Combo Jukebox 

83 = eVo (Non-Revenue)

90 = Force Fusion 

40 = Conversion Kits 

62 = Remote Sound System 

A0 = Mr. VIPS
