Sec. 36. Software used in all systems must monitor the overall quality of data read-write and transfer quality status, checking the number and types of errors that occur in any of the relevant operations on data and how the errors were corrected. If the total number of corrected errors exceeds a predetermined threshold, or if errors on any one (1) type occur repeatedly, then the operation of the affected device must be suspended until the condition generating the errors has been corrected. Any uncorrectable error must result in an immediate halt and provide an appropriate message to the voter or polling place official.
