POLL is a unique component which provides the ability to automatically, repeatedly trigger an ACTION at a defined interval. ACTION's can either be added as Child objects to a POLL, or via the POLL REQUEST EVENT. In this respect, it acts in a similar way to a BUTTON.

POLL
Essential Parameters:
Interval:	Time between poll triggers, in seconds.

Note: If a POLL interval is triggered while a FORM is open, the FORM will get closed automatically, therefore they should not be present together on the same TABBED PANE.
