POLLING

Polling allows you to request another fax machine to send an original to your fax machine. In other words, the receiving fax machine, not the transmitting fax machine, activates the transmission. You can use your fax to both poll and be polled by others.

Serial polling can be used to poll multiple fax machines (maximum of 100) in a single operation.

POLLING

You can request that another fax machine send you the original that is set in that fax machine. You can perform a polling operation at a scheduled time. (See "TIMER OPERATIONS" (p.79))
