Steve..
We run this already in El Paso, TX. (same
scenario)
Yes, some elections will run bigger with audio files, and will
require Imation disks. In El Paso, we run all elections with Imation disk,
small and large, because they use the Vibs unit for all elections.
To create a disk, you would have your GEMS computer hooked to
a regular AVTS unit via a hub. From this set-up, you can download and
upload. All AVTS units in the field should be equipped with Imation
Drives. It is a simple procedure to Network a AVTS unit to a GEMS
computer.
As for the Pollbook, there are a couple of
ways to load your election. The safe way is to buy a external Imation
drive to load the election on to the Pollbook. Then you would make a
change in the regedit files, so that the election would run off the "C" drive
instead of the "A" drive. THIS IS THE SAFEST AND RECOMMENDED
WAY TO LOAD THE ELECTION ON THE POLLBOOK.
The other way is to make ZIP file of your election and load it
onto your pollbook. (note: no matter which way you load, you must
make the change in the regedit file)
If I did not answer all of your questions, give me a call in
the office.
