Sec. 15. (a) This section applies to each precinct and vote center.

     (b) After the delivery of an electronic voting system to a precinct, the precinct election board may meet at the polls on the same day, open the package containing the sample ballots, and, if necessary, examine the ballot label, to determine whether the system is ready for use in accordance with section 11 of this chapter. If a system is not in compliance with that section, the board shall immediately label, set and adjust, and place the system in order or have it done.

     (c) While acting under subsection (b), the precinct election board may restrict access to parts of the room where voting systems and other election material are being handled to safeguard this material.
