Tari,
Currently GEMS displays ALL the machines that are to be uploaded as a separate line in the AVServer console. Therefore if you only upload 3 of the 5 machines for a vote center then only 3 of the 5 machines will have a green arrow next to them, the other 2 will not. Further more at the top of the screen is a field that shows x/y uploaded. If only 10 of 12 machines where uploaded then this will only show 10/12.
I agree it would be nice for the pollworker to know that they have 5 machines to upload and that only 3 of the five have been uploaded but in GEMS we allow you to change the number of machines for a vote center AFTER you have downloaded some of them, therefore the Accumulator has no way of knowing how many machines are to be uploaded. This is not a simple task and will need some real thought and work to implement something that really works.

> When you have a Precinct/Vote center that has say 5 TS units in one location and you use one of them as the Accumulator - we need a message that tells the pollworker that say 1 of 5 machines loaded - 2 of 5 etc until all 5 are loaded. Then and only then will the transfer results button become accessible and the modem call/direct upload be allowed.
> Conversely , we need a message that alerts the pollworker if they DO NOT load all the TS units for a particular vote center and warns them that their upload will not be complete - or something similar and ask them if they are sure they wish to upload 4 of 5 or whatever they have.
> On the Gems side - each machine gets a green arrow as it uploads so we can tell who has not uploaded - but in the field we need some type of message display that lets them know it is incomplete.
> I hope this is understandable - if not I can try to clarify.
