F-CODE POLLING MEMORY

F-code polling memory allows one fax machine to call another fax machine and initiate reception of a document that has been scanned into the other machine's F-code polling memory box. Calling another machine and initiating reception is called F-code polling, and scanning a document into a memory box for another machine to retrieve by polling is called F-code polling memory. This function is approximately the same as regular polling (page 35); however, it uses an F-code polling memory box and is always protected by means of the sub-address and passcode.

4) Automatic transmission of document data

to other machine

F-code polling (page 57) is when your machine calls another machine and retrieves a document that was scanned into the polling memory box of that machine (the reverse of the above diagram).

To perform polling or polling memory transmission without using an F-code, see page 35.

Note

To create an F-code polling memory box, see "PROGRAMMING F-CODE PUBLIC (POLLING MEMORY)

 

BOXES" (page 81) and "Scanning a document into polling memory (the Public Box)" (page 38).

Unlike regular polling, the other machine's fax number is not used as a passcode for F-code polling memory. The sub-address and passcode of the polling memory box are always used for polling security.

The receiving machine bears the expense (phone charges) of the transmission.
