LS 3070 Product Reference Guide: Programming
When you select the wait for ENQ option, the base station waits for an ENQ,
Enquire character, from the host before it transmits data; otherwise the unit
transmits data without waiting for an ENQ character from the host. With ENQ
enabled, the base station must receive an ENQ from the host within a 2 second
period after the last activity or 4 short beeps are sounded to indicate a
transmission error; the unit is now ready to scan again.
