Global
McKinney had never shipped Manager Cards to Barrie, ON, prior to Jeff Hintz's
arrival there last week. I don't know where the ones Jeff mentioned came
from.
The
current revisions of the External Smart Card Reader are A, B, C, and D. If
Global Vancouver already has some external card readers there, perhaps they
could tell me what revisions they have and I could ship the revisions they don't
have.
I can
provide samples of various versions of smart cards used by Global over the
centuries. I'll send Bonnie some info so she can create a work order for
these parts.
Ian
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???
