UNDERSTANDING THE BEEPS 
Functions and errors are indicated by beeps from the intercom panel. The following will help you 
understand the different beeps heard and what, if anything needs to be done in response to the 
beeps. 
BEEP REASON SOLUTION 
Short beeps at 1 second intervals  Relay or auxiliary output activated.  None, this is normal 
Single short beep while the 
system is in standby and not 
being used. 
A valid text message has been 
received and processed 
None, this is normal 
Two short beeps followed by a 
long beep 
Button pressed but no number 
stored 
Program a telephone number for 
the button pressed. 
Long beep followed by short beep 
while the system is in standby. 
Invalid text message received.  If this has happened when 
sending one of the programming 
text messages then check the 
message for errors. These beeps 
will also be heard if the 4 digit 
code in the text message is 
incorrect. If you are unsure of the 
4 digit code, try resetting it to 
1111. 
Long beep followed by short beep 
while the system is in use. 
Manually ending a call by pressing 
a call button 
None, this confirms the call has 
been cancelled. Another call can 
be placed if required. 
Four long beeps  Not registered with a network 
provider but still trying 
Leave it a short while to see if it 
manages to find the network. If the 
beeps repeat every 30 seconds 
then try moving the antenna to a 
better location or changing the 
SIM to another network provider. 
Six long beeps  Unknown registering problem  Try moving the antenna to a better 
location. Try changing the SIM 
card to another network provider. 
Eight long beeps  Registered but roaming for a 
better network 
This could happen if it registers to 
another network instead of its 
primary one. This may result in 
higher call charges. Try another 
SIM provider for that area. 
Single short beep every 10 
seconds after power up 
Unable to see the SIM card  Check the SIM card is fitted 
correctly. Try removing the SIm 
card, cleaning and fitting again. 
Try a different SIM card.
