Understanding the E-buzzer Beep Codes
When your workstation starts, the system tests your hardware for
possible problems. If a problem is detected, the e-buzzer will emit audible
beeps and an encoded error signal that can be sent through a telephone
line to an authorized Help desk or HP Support. This signal can be
decoded by Help desk equipment to extract the workstation model, serial
number, and details about any faults. To send this signal to HP Support,
hold your telephone next to the speaker on the system front bezel when
the system is booting.
