Alarm Tones
You might hear tones produced by the Roll-Up III which are
actually sent by your application program. (Programs can send
commands to the digitizer to turn the audio tone generator on
and off.) If you hear tones during digitizing, and they don’t
correspond to the tones listed in the table above, they are
produced by the application program.
