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.
Default value: 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.
Possible values: One of the following:
- A positive integer (in milliseconds)
- no (to disable polling)
- key (to poll only when the letter p is entered in
the connector command prompt window)
Update method: Dynamic
