Remove the election manager card and confirm that the VxScan is in official ballot mode by checking that there is no orange *Test Ballot Mode* banner, *Polls Closed* is displayed, and the *Sheets Scanned* count is 0.

{% hint style="warning" %}
A USB drive is required to use VxScan on election day. After testing, you may re-insert the USB drive used during testing or a new USB drive into the USB port and seal the machine until a poll worker accesses it on election day. If official ballot mode was used, we strongly recommend using a new USB drive for election day.
