Load an Activator onto an EViD Station

This topic explains how to load an activator on to an EViD station. It is not necessary that each station have its own activator; you can use the same activator to prepare multiple EViDs for voting.

Important: Before loading an early voting or election day activator onto an EViD station, make sure the EViD has been staged.

  1. Power on the EViD station.

  2. Insert the activator. EViD Workstation starts automatically, asks you to enter your initials and passcode, and prints a start-up ticket.

    When startup is complete, the Home screen will appear. This indicates that the EViD station is ready to check in voters.

  1. Remove the election activator from the EViD station.
