RE: Smart Cards & New Table Top Card Readers

I appreciate your interest in this situation, and I believe I can provide you with the materials you requested.  Although, it may be more prudent to have Jeff Hintz send you the 1KB Manager Card he experienced the problems with.  I will make arrangements with Bonnie to ship you an External Smart Card Reader Model 152 and some of the blank 1KB cards we stock.  Perhaps Jeff can contact Bonnie on sending his special Manager Card to you as well.
 
FYI:  He did state that the 1KB Manager Card would work on the Ballot Station card readers just not the External card readers attached to the customer's laptops.  He also stated that he had no problems programming the 1KB cards as voter cards on either reader.  Would there be a difference in the the "votercard.dll" file between a Ballot Station and a PollBook?  I was under the impression that the two executables shared the same "votercard.dll" file.

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???
