Polling to Receive at a Preset Time

Before you set up polling at a preset time, make sure you have performed the following tasks:

•Register the numbers of the fax machines you want to poll under one-touch speed dialing keys or coded speed dialing codes.

(See “Setting Up Speed Dialing,” on p. 2-3.)

•When you set up the speed dialing settings, turn ‘ON’ the OPTIONAL SETTINGS and select ‘TX TYPE’. Select ‘POLLING RX’, and set the ITU-T subaddress and password. (See “Setting Up Speed Dialing,” on p. 2-3.)

•If you have to poll a number that you use regularly, you should register it under another speed dialing key. Set the ITU-T subaddress and password to match the polling box of the other party’s fax machine, and register the second number for preset polling.
