Common Coded EDs

When a Supply Group Code is loaded in the CDU, it is possible to set it as a unique Supply Group, or a
common coded Supply Group.

Whenever a meter key is generated (like vending a token), the above process is followed.
The only difference is that the meter serial number is substituted with zeros for a common coded Supply
Group. The result is that all the meters in a common coded Supply Group will have the same key.
