DVS-ECO-100936EAC approved 2024-09-24

The records document a post-certification change path affecting federal 5.17, but do not name the SSD firmware version or establish adoption by any jurisdiction.
Findings and public status
Tests, limitations, and listing gaps
Neutral finding types replace a generic “bugs” bucket so affected versions and source scope remain visible.
test campaign resultnone reported in test campaign
No anomalies or deficiencies were reported in the 5.17 certification campaign
The final Pro V&V report states that no anomalies and no deficiencies were encountered during the D-Suite 5.17 test campaign and recommends certification of the evaluated system.
This statement is limited to that test campaign and evaluated configuration. It is not evidence that every field unit or later operating condition is defect-free.

product advisory noticerestart procedure documented
Touchscreen responsiveness advisory for named ICX Classic versions
A May 2024 EAC-hosted manufacturer notice describes rare startup occasions when a named ICX Classic screen may not respond to touch and provides a power-cycle procedure.
The notice names versions and jurisdictions but does not quantify occurrence or establish that every named jurisdiction or unit experienced the condition.
customer advisory noticedocumentation and ssd firmware update path recorded
ICX Prime SSD advisory and firmware-update documentation path
An August 2024 advisory describes a bounded SSD error during election-project installation or removal, before logic-and-accuracy testing. The linked ECO records updated user-manual procedures for an SSD-firmware update path.
The sources do not establish occurrence during an election, adoption of the update by a jurisdiction, or an SSD model or firmware number. Do not infer a field incident or effect on voted paper records.
customer advisory noticeadvisory issued review guidance
Straight-party and split-ticket selection review advisory
An EAC-hosted customer notice describes a sequence in which previously removed selections can be reapplied after a straight-party selection is manually changed to split-ticket, and recommends review of the summary screen and printed ballot.
The notice does not quantify field occurrence, identify an election outcome effect, or document a software resolution. It is not evidence of fraud, misconduct, or altered votes.
Power evidence
Backup supply and runtime
Named power equipment is rendered exactly as sourced. Missing capacity and runtime remain explicit instead of being inferred from another device or installation.
documented partial
ImageCast X power / backup supply
The SID-21V manual documents the optional battery model, chemistry, voltage, capacity, connector locations, and installation path. It does not publish an election-workload runtime.
- Supply type
- optional internal rechargeable Li-ion battery
- Manufacturer
- Not publicly confirmed
- UPS model
- ACC-BAT-3S1P-01R
- Capacity
- 2,400 mAh typical; 2,215 mAh minimum
- Runtime
- Not specified in reviewed source
This is an optional model-family component, not evidence that a particular certified or fielded ICX contains the battery or that its present capacity matches the specification.
confirmed
ImageCast X power / backup supply
The Pro V&V ICX configuration lists four external UPS alternatives. The reviewed sources do not state an ICX load-specific capacity or runtime.
- Supply type
- external uninterruptible power supply
- Manufacturer
- APC; CyberPower
- UPS model
- SMT-1500; SMT-1500C; PR1500LCD; PR1500LCD-VTVM
- Capacity
- Not specified in reviewed source
- Runtime
- Not specified in reviewed source
Confirmed means the UPS models appear in the reviewed certified or test configuration, not that all are used together, that a jurisdiction selected one, or that battery health and runtime are known.

Deployment evidence
Dated jurisdiction observations
Deployment records remain at their documented grain. A system-level observation does not establish unit components, firmware, change adoption, or power configuration.
not collected
No reviewed deployment observation in this dossier
The source package currently establishes a certified configuration and test history, but no dated jurisdiction-level use record.
Absence from this catalog is not evidence that the system is unused. Deployment claims require a separately reviewed state or local source.
