Polling Reception

13

Use this function if you want to poll a
message from another terminal. You
can also poll documents from many
terminals with only one operation
(use Groups and Keystroke programs
to fully exploit this feature).

There are two types of Polling Recep-
tion.

❖

❖

❖

❖ Default ID Polling Reception 

If the Polling ID is programmed in
your machine, any messages wait-
ing in the transmitting machine
with the same ID are received. If
the other machine does not have
any messages waiting with the
same Polling ID, any messages that
do not require an ID are received
(Free Polling).

❖

❖ Override ID Polling Reception 

You must enter an Override Poll-
ing ID unique to this transmission.
This ID overrides the Polling ID.
Your machine will receive any
messages waiting in the transmit-
ting machine with matching IDs. If
no IDs match, any messages that
does not require an ID are received
(Free Polling). 

❒ Polling Reception requires that the

other machine can perform Polling
Transmission.

❒ To receive a message sent by De-

fault ID Polling Transmission or
Override ID Polling Transmission,
it is necessary to specify the same
Polling ID as the sender's.

❒ To receive a message sent by De-

fault ID Polling Transmission or
Override ID Polling Transmission,
it is necessary to use a machine of
the same make as the sender's ma-
chine that has polling capability.
With Free Polling Reception, a
message can be also received from
other manufacturer's machines as
long as they have a polling capabil-
ity.

❒ A Polling ID may be any four char-

acter combination of numbers (0 to
9) and letters (A to F) except 0000
and FFFF.
