Leaving Documents to Be Picked up by Others (Polling
Transmission)

Use this feature when you wish to leave a document in the document feeder for
callers to pick up. On Type I models only, you can store the documents in memory
until someone picks them up. You cannot specify the telephone number of the
message receiver (the polling terminal), but by using the ID Code there are ways
to make sure that the message does not go to the wrong place, as explained
below. There are three types of Polling Transmission:

Free Polling: Anybody can poll the message from the polled machine’s memory.

Secured Polling:The message will only be sent out if the ID Code of the polling
machine is the same as the ID Code stored in the polled
machine.

Stored ID Override: There are two ways to use this feature:

❐

If your ID Code is different from that of the other terminal, you can use the
other terminal’s ID Code just for this transmission (ask the other terminal’s
operator what their ID Code is). Your machine’s stored ID Code will be ignored.

❐

For extra security, both parties can specify an ID Code just for this
communication. The ID Codes of both machines will be ignored. All
communicating parties need to coordinate their ID Codes in this case.
