RE: AVOS - Visible Light Reader - Stopped feeding ballots after jam - no error message



Have they tried turning off, waiting a few seconds and then turning on the power again?

Subject: AVOS - Visible Light Reader - Stopped feeding ballots after jam - no error message

Anthony from Shawnee County, KS is running an election today.  They have all AVOS - Visible Light Readers, the rom version is 1.94w.  They have 3 units at their election office that they use for Advanced Voting.  They have already swapped out 2 of those units with replacements due to this error, and now have encountered it again on one of the replacements.  What happens is this: they are processing ballots, then a ballot gets jammed, no error message comes out on the display, they remove the jammed ballot, the display has the current count, but the motor will not engage to process any more ballots.  Again, this has happened several times, with several different AVOS units, and it is election day.  Please help ASAP.
 
Thanks,
