This is a brief description of the T-Log polling feature on the UP600/700 as part of
the Training guide.

The T Log polling system works by the Slave machine informing the Master that he
has data that must now be sent to the master terminal for file update.

Caution. Do not create T log Buffer file in the master machine, if it is not connected
to a PC (or if PC software is not polling for T Log data, check with supplier)
(If no PC connected make sure file 146 does not exist in Master machine)

T log polling starts when the Open Store command is carried out and it will stop T
log polling when the store is closed.

The slave machines have a setting for the number of records that they can store
before they send a request to the master to come and get their data.
This is set at job 923-AB. (e.g. if job code 923-AB is set to 01 the slave will inform
the Master every 100 items that it requires to be polled)

Once the Master has got the slaves data and consolidated it he then waits the length
of the Polling Cycle before he goes to the next slave that has requested polling.

The features that require T-Log polling are: -

Sales data of the EAN/PLU

The learning feature will require the T-Logging if there is no D EAN file created.

Price change will also require the use of T logging, as the changed price will be sent
to all terminals in the system after open store.

The customer data is also centrally controlled in the master so data entered at the
