Each ETH32 device has a unique serial number assigned to it. Besides being printed on the device itself, the serial number can be retrieved from the device using functions provided by the API.
Functions are also provided to retrieve the version number of the firmware running on the device.
Lastly, each device has a product type ID which can be retrieved. This number is identical for almost all ETH32 devices and there is typically little need to retrieve or inspect it. However, if an ETH32 device is supplied with customized/special features, this number will reflect that.
