    4K Smart cards which had never been previously programmed are being
    recognized by the Card Manager as manager cards.

    When a virgin card from CardLogix is inserted into a Spyrus (have tried
    CM-0-2-9 and CM-1-1-1) the prompt "Upgrade Mgr Card?" is displayed. Pressing
    the ENTER key creates a valid manager card.  This happens in Admin mode and
    Election mode.

    The only way which I have found to avoid this situation is to initiate the
    card by creating it as a voter card with an AVTS unit (any version).  Once a
    card has been programmed once it will work correctly for any election.

    Will overnight a batch of virgin cards to Vancouver.  Please let me know the
    amount you may need.
