13 Miss. Code. R. 7-7.6 - Equipment Control

(a) The calibration module of the weigh scale is to be sealed at all times by a seal of such a nature to prevent tampering (e.g. metal strip with prenumbered labels, lock and key, password protected, etc.). A person independent of the cage, vault and slot departments is required to be present when the calibration module is accessed. Access must be documented and maintained.

(b) Weigh scale and weigh scale interface shall be tested by someone independent of the cage, vault, slot departments, and count team at least on a quarterly basis. The results of this test must be fully documented and maintained on file by the licensee.

(c) If the weigh scale has a zero adjustment mechanism, it shall be either physically limited to minor adjustments (e.g., weight of a bucket) or physically situated such that any unnecessary adjustments to it during the weigh process would be observed by other count team members and Surveillance. Addition and deletion of slot machine numbers in the weigh scale must be performed by accounting personnel who is independent of the drop and count process.

(d) If a weigh scale interface is used, it shall be adequately restricted to prevent unauthorized access (passwords, keys, etc.).
