All Beep Types

All Beep Types

The 0x19 Configure Alerts, 0x1E Beep Configure, 0x1F Cancel commands all specify a beep type. This document describes all the possible beep types and has audio recordings for the more common values. These audio files were captured by changing the beep type nibble value and issuing a cancel command to test. These audio files recorded by Eelke Jager can be found here.
