Open
the Card reader that you just have tested successfully and check the center
personality chip that has a firmware version sticker on it and make sure that
all card readers have that same version. You can ask the manufacturer to burn
new chips if you return the old chips at a minimum cost to make sure that they
all work the same way. Also make
sure that the same Votercard.dll is used on any new installs of CPM.exe, plus
on that system you have the two other DLL’s require to successfully run
CPM.exe on any other machine to include NT since I have it working in Gaston
N.C.
Take a
virgin machine (pardon the expression) that has never seen an install copy
CPM.exe to a new folder and the votercard.dll to Windows system folder, once
you run CPM it will ask for one other DLL first (the name escapes me) then
copy that one from your working pc and keep a copy, then run CPM again at this
time it will ask you for another DLL (that one too I can’t remember) copy that
one also from your hard drive and keep a copy. Place both additional DLL’s in the
system folder of the new pc also.
That should do it. Send the Voter Card DLL and the additional two DLL’s
and the CPM.exe files to Ian to hold as gospel for future CPM install and
reference.
I hope
this helps

RE: Smart Cards & New Table Top Card Readers
I just finished doing
a small test here in the Omaha office, and here is what I produced. I
ran the CPM program to be able to produce Manager Cards. Using a
tabletop model - Rev. B, and Voter Card.dll - Version 3-12-6-1, I was
successful in programming the 4 different types of cards that I have.
The oval chip card, a square chip card with an X shape, a square chip card
with the word ATMEL at the bottom, and a square chip card in the L
shape. Those are the exact cards I had in Barrie, and I was only
successful with the square chip card in the L shape. However, I did not
have the CPM program installed on any equipment, there in Barrie. I
don't know if that helps or not, but just thought I would try the test here in
Omaha.

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.

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.

Re: Smart Cards & New Table Top Card Readers
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???
