Is Marin
using an 18” ballot or does ballot length have any effect on this? Larry J. Dix Global Election Systems (972)-542-6000 -----Original
Message----- I am running
2.00g firmware. I guess the "adjusted the timing mark signal
filtering" may be working in that I may be getting fewer than I would have
prior to the adjustment, however, I'd say I'm getting a 5-7% rate on these or
roughly 10 to 15 times per input tray of 150 to 200 ballots. This seems a
bit much to me. -----Original Message----- What
firmware? 2.00g was supposed to address this specifically: ·
Adjusted the timing
mark signal filtering to reduce the number of non-processed ballots. Ken We have
started counting absentee ballots in Marin. We are getting a significant
number of the following error messages. NO ENDER MARK
- the ballot will usually be taken on the next try NO BACK LEFT
TIMING MARK (0 or 52) - these also run on next try or so. I've looked
at the ballots and find no discernable reason for them to be stopping or giving
this message, as they have all appropriate timing marks. I don't
expect there's anything to be done, but it could be looked at prior to next
election. |
