Title: Beeping Sound
Post by: KBaker1988 on April 05, 2007, 06:21:40 AM

At my work, all the employees use Meridian phones. The guys that work around me know a pretty neat trick and will not show or tell me how to do it and continue to pretend they don't know what I am talking about. The trick is you can call people on these phones and the person you are calling will receive a loud BEEP sound. I have experimented on trying to make this sound and I can't figure it out.

Does anyone know what I am talking about? If you do, do you know how to do this?

Oh ya, that beep sound. Sure, I know what you're talking about and how to do it.

Yeah you can do that with a "tone dialer" or an old Captain Crunch whistle if you have one (cover up most of the holes).

Just implement the beep command in your code. For example:

10 rem beep program
20 gosub 40
30 end
40 beep
50 return

Notice the 4 uneccessary lines, that makes the beep louder.
