ADVANCED TRANSMISSION METHODS Restricting polling access (polling security) If you wish to prevent unauthorized fax machines from polling your machine, enable the polling security function. When this function is enabled, polling permission will only be granted if the fax number of the polling machine (as programmed in that machine) matches one of the fax numbers that you have programmed in your machine as passcode numbers. Up to 10 fax numbers can be programmed as passcode numbers. To turn on the polling security function and program passcode numbers, see "PASSCODE NUMBER SETTING" on page 102. There are two types of polling security functions. Polling is permitted when the numbers of either type match. Checking the receiving machine's programmed sender's number against the transmitting machine's passcode numbers [Preparations] [During polling] Your (receiving) Beep machine Program own (sender's) fax number Select polling or serial polling Polling Reception Transmission Transmitting machine Program passcode numbers [Preparations] Receiving machine Own (sender's) number Transmitting machine Passcode number Numbers match Check sender's number against passcode numbers Polling is permitted Checking the receiving machine's system number against the transmitting machine's ID numbers (Sharp machines only*) Your (receiving) machine [Preparations] Program a system number [During polling] Select polling or serial polling *Excluding some models Beep Polling Reception Transmission Program ID numbers Receiving machine System number Transmitting machine ID numbers Numbers match Transmitting machine [Preparations] Check system number against ID numbers Polling is permitted Note • If you do not use the polling security function, the document will be sent to any fax machine that polls you. • When using the polling memory function with polling security enabled, the fax number of the polling machine(s) must be programmed in your machine. The polling machine must also have its sender's number programmed. 38
