POLLING RECEPTION
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 (Free

Polling Reception)

Use this method for Free Polling or
Default ID Polling. If the Polling ID
is programmed in your machine,
any messages waiting in the trans-
mitting machine with the same ID
are received. If the other machine
does not have any messages wait-
ing with the same Polling ID, any
messages that do not require ID
are received (Free Polling).

Override ID Polling Reception

You must enter an Override Poll-
ing ID unique to this transmission.
This ID overrides that stored in the
Polling ID.
Your machine will receive any
messages waiting in the transmit-
ting machine with matching ID's.
If no ID's match, any messages that
do not require ID are received
(Free Polling).
Limitation
Polling Reception requires that the
other machine can perform Polling
Transmission.
Usually, you can only receive doc-
uments with a polling ID from ma-
chines of the same make that
support the polling function. How-
ever, if the other party's fax ma-
chine supports Polling
Transmission and the "SEP" func-
tion, you can still receive using
Polling Reception from another
party's fax machine that has a
stored IDs.
To receive a message sent by De-
fault ID Polling Transmission or
Override ID Polling Transmission,
the sender must use a machine of
the same make that has polling ca-
pability. With Free Polling Recep-
tion, a message can be also
received from other manufactur-
ers' machines as long as they have
polling capability.
A Polling ID may be any four num-
bers (0 to 9) and characters (A to F)
except 0000 and FFFF.
