PollFrequency
The PollFrequency property specifies the amount of time
(in milliseconds) between the end of one polling action and the
start of the next polling action. This is not the interval between
polling actions. Rather, the logic is as follows:
- Poll to obtain the number of objects specified by the value
of the PollQuantity property.
- Process these objects. For some connectors, this may be partly
done on separate threads, which execute asynchronously to the next
polling action.
- Delay for the interval specified by the PollFrequency property.
- Repeat the cycle.
The following values are valid for this property:
- The number of milliseconds between polling actions (a positive
integer).
- The word no, which causes the connector not to poll. Enter the word in
lowercase.
- The word key, which causes the connector to poll only when you type the
letter p in the connector Command Prompt window. Enter the word in
lowercase.
The default is 10000.
Important:
Some connectors have restrictions on the use of this property.
Where they exist, these restrictions are documented in the chapter
on installing and configuring the adapter.
