6) [AA] 1-pole 4 terminals, [AC] 2-pole 4 terminals (See Special Note Below) - Circuitry terminal codes
7) [01] Operator action continuously maintains an On or OFF position
There was not enough demand for the different types of lighted switches that they only come as no bulb installed, however in the [F] style there a socket to install a T1-3/4 style bulb to illuminate the operator.
Example: AML34FBA4AC01 - Rocker switch with an incandescent bulb socket for T1-3/4 style bulb, black bezel, no bulb installed, solder and/or quick-connect terminals, 2 poles to operate 2 circuits, Operator action continuously maintains an On or OFF position

SPECIAL NOTE: Added 06/04/04 - To my current understanding, the " [AC] 2-pole 4 terminals" is not correct, [AC] is only a 1-pole 2 terminal switch, has always been, will always be per Honeywell Tech support. I will be verifying this in writing with Honeywell ASAP.
What does this mean to you? For non-lighted switches - nothing, flip the switch around and have your text on either surface you want. For lighted switches - mount the switch with the lighted portion in the up position and have the engraving done on the top surface. ONLY one half of the switch is illuminated, make sure what you want engraved is on the proper surface that is lit.
