When powered up for the first time the device is used during
a voting event, the Verity Touch Writer should display the
Print Zero Report screen.
NOTE: If you are reopening polls during subsequent days of a
multiple-day voting event, then you will not print a Zero report. See
page 40.
In addition to the date and time, the following appears at the bottom of the screen:
Ballots: The number of ballots printed using the Verity Touch Writer for the current
•
election; at the start of a voting event, this number should be zero.
Lifetime: The number of ballots printed using the Verity Touch Writer for the
•
lifetime of the device (for all elections).
AC and battery power indicators: A green battery icon indicates the battery is
•
connected; a green plug icon indicates AC power is connected. Specific battery
power level can be found on the Touch Writer Power-On Self Test report.
NOTE: If AC power is not available, the device will automatically switch over to
battery power, and a warning message will display. To dismiss the message and
continue operating on battery power, touch "If the power is out, touch here to use
battery". If a voting session is in progress, this message will not appear until the
session is completed.
When battery power is low, and AC power is disconnected, a warning message will
appear on the device screen. Reconnect the device to AC power.
