Polling Reception - Lanier LD225 Fax Manual

Transmission Mode

Polling Reception

Use this function to poll a document
from another machine. You can also
1
poll documents from many machines
with only one operation (use Groups
and Keystroke Programs to fully ex-
ploit this function).
Preparation
Before using ID Polling Transmis-
sion, you must register a Polling ID.
See p.193 "Programming a Polling
ID".
There are two types of Polling Recep-
tion.
❖ Default ID/Free Polling Reception
Use this method for Free Polling or
Default ID Polling. If the Polling ID
is programmed in your machine,
any document waiting in the trans-
mitting machine with the same ID
are received. If the other machine
does not have any documents waiting
with the same Polling ID, any doc-
uments that do not require ID are
received (Free Polling).
14
❖ ID Override Polling Reception
You must enter an Override Polling ID
unique to this transmission. This ID
overrides the one stored in this machine.
Your machine will receive any doc-
uments waiting in the transmitting
machine that have matching ID's.
If no ID's match, any documents
that do not require IDs are received
(Free Polling).
Limitation
❒ Polling Reception requires that the
other machine is capable of Polling
Transmission.
❒ Usually, you can only receive doc-
uments with a Polling ID from ma-
chines of the same manufacturer
that support the polling function.
However, if the other party's fax
machine supports Polling Trans-
missions and the SEP function, and
also has stored IDs, you can still
perform Polling Reception. See
p.50 "SEP Code".
❒ This function is not available with
Internet Fax.
Note
❒ To receive a document sent by De-
fault ID Polling Transmission or ID
Override Polling Transmission, it
is necessary to specify the same
Polling ID as the sender's. Free
Polling Transmission does not re-
quire the same Polling ID.
❒ Polling Result Report allows you
to verify Polling Reception has tak-
en place. See p.16 "Polling Recep-
tion Result Report".
❒ You can program one of the Quick
Operation keys with operations for
this function. Using the key allows
you to omit step A. See p.145 "Gen-
eral Settings/Adjustment".
