Polling Control Area
The Polling Control area contains six parameters to set up how TMA will poll each phone selected. Each
is described below:
Table 16. Polling Control Parameters
Parameter Function
Group The Group radio buttons allow selection of up to five polling configurations
involving either the same or different groups of phones. Each group, when selected,
has a distinct polling set-up form to permit polling at five separate times each day for
the same telephone(s) (if included in all groups).
Schedule The schedule determines whether telephones in the Polling List will be polled daily
or on a specific day of each week.
 Daily – when selected, TMA polls the designated telephones every day.
 Specific Day – when selected, the Day of Week drop down box is used to select
which day polling is to take place.
Timing Timing determines the time of day polling begins and the overall duration of the
polling calls. Up and down arrows are used to adjust the Time to start polling field
and the Duration fields of hours and minutes.
Poll Status Clicking the
Active?
check box in this block enables polling. Clicking a second time
will uncheck the box and disable polling.
Reiteration Clicking the
Continuous?
check box directs TMA to continually re-poll telephones
in the Polling List until the duration time has been exceeded.
Automated
Reports When checked, TMA generates (at the end of the polling cycle) all reports appearing
in the “Selected Automated Reports” group found in the Automated Reports Form.
The generated reports are sent to the default printer and are additionally sent to the
configured e-mail address(es) if E-mail Scheduled Automated Reports is enabled
on the E-mail Setup Form. Printing can also be disabled from the E-mail Setup
Form. Refer to the “Automated Reports” section on page 105 and the “E-mail
Setup” section on page 111 for additional information.
OK When clicked, TMA saves and processes the polling option selections and closes the
Polling Setup Form.
Cancel When clicked, the Polling Setup Form closes. New and/or changed selections are not
saved and no processing occurs.
Apply When clicked, the current polling selections are saved and the form remains open to
permit additional selections and/or changes.
