RE: Smart Cards & New Table Top Card Readers



The City of Barrie had 2 Manager cards there with the Gems system.  A 1K card, (the old oval chip card), and a 64KB card, (the square chip card with a L shape).  I don't know if these cards were left from the first election that was done with the old I-Mark system, or if left from demostrations after that.
 
Yes the 1K Manager cards work on my table top reader here in Omaha.  But I have a table top model that is Rev. B, and the table tope models sent to Barrie were Rev. D.
 
Also, you might want Ian to send you all the different Smart Cards & Smart Card Readers that they currently have in McKinney, and make sure all are working.

Jeff,
 
    Two questions:
 
    1)    Since Ian states they have never send 1K Manager cards where did the 1K manager cards come from?
    2)    Do the 1K Manager cards work on other readers?  If they do then I would like to get a the 1K manager card and a new reader so we can determine what the problem is and get it fixed.

Subject: Smart Cards & New Table Top Card Readers

I am doing training here in the City of Barrie, Canada, and I have encountered with the new table top card readers sent here, that they cannot read some of the different smart cards that we have.  So far I have only been able to get the square smart card with the shape of an L able to read.  Once I am able to get into the Poll Book software with this card, I can create voter cards with any of the other cards that I have, and they work fine in the AVTS units.  Is there anyone else that has encountered these problems???
