Until an accounting discrepancy is resolved, the lottery shall make no credit adjustments. The operator shall submit to the lottery the maintenance log that includes current mechanical meter readings and the audit ticket that contains electronic meter readings generated by the machine's software for each machine that reflects a discrepancy. If the meter readings and the lottery's records cannot be reconciled, final disposition of the matter shall be determined. Upon notification to the lottery, electronic accounting meters may be cleared without a lottery employee present by a manufacturer or by a Type II technician replacing the main logic board with a board that has been previously cleared by a manufacturer. Any accounting discrepancies that cannot be resolved by reason of a violation of this section shall be resolved in favor of the state.
