Setting Up Lightweight Polling for a Single Client

If you do not want to set the lightweight polling configuration on Unwired Server for multiple device clients, use the client-side program for a single client.

The poll_every unit should be set to seconds (not minutes, hours, or a combination of the two). The lightweight poller listener on the client can be turned on/off if you do not want to receive notifications during a specific period; do not just change the interval.
  1. In your program, look for where you specify the polling option right after: ...;poll_notifier=UALIGHTWEIGHT;poll_key....
  2. Change the polling option, for example: ....;poll_notifier=UALIGHTWEIGHT;poll_every=180;poll_key=.....
    Note: Do not set the client poll_every value to a shorter time interval than the server value. This does not result in receiving push notifications any faster, and can cause the client to see the same notification multiple times, causing multiple useless synchronizations. Only set this value on the client if for some reason you do not want to see notifications as frequently as the server checks for pending notifications.
