Polling

Polling

Polling is a process of calling the other station(s) for document(s) retrieval. The other station must know in advance that you will be calling, and must prepare document(s) by storing them into the memory. To ensure security, establish a polling password that is shared by the other station ahead of time.

The receiving station initiates the call, therefore, it pays for the communication charges.
