The following steps must be completed by an Election Manager.

Save Election Package

To configure VxScan and VxCentralScan you must first save the election package from VxAdmin to a USB drive. Select Election from the side menu in VxAdmin and select Save Election Package.

You will be prompted to insert a USB drive. Once you insert a USB drive, the screen updates and prompts you to save the election package. Select Save.

VxAdmin will generate the election package of all ballot styles, saving it automatically on the USB drive. The file is saved inside the /election-packages folder.

This election package is different from the election package used to configure your VxAdmin.

Once the file is saved, VxAdmin prompts you to eject the USB drive. Select Eject USB.

After a few seconds, VxAdmin will confirm USB ejection and then it is safe to remove the USB drive.
