Note: Any time a beep gap change character is entered, its duration is
remembered by the message handler. When the automatic beep gap ON
character is encountered, the message handler will use the duration that it
remembered from the previous beep gap change character. This is also true of
the custom beep delay character.
Beep Duration Change Characters
Beep Duration Change characters are used to set the duration of the beep
characters that follow. Ten (10) beep duration change characters have been
defined from 10mS to 320mS using the codes 70–79. The beep duration may
be changed as often as desired within a beep message (even between each
beep). This parameter is not changed at the end of the beep message.
The following table shows Beep Duration Change Characters :

Note: Any time a beep duration change is made (including a custom beep), the
duration will be remembered by the message handler. When any succeeding
beep is encountered, the message handler will use the duration that it
remembered from the previous beep duration change.
Automatic Beep Gap ON Character
The Automatic Beep Gap ON Character , 56, causes the message handler to
place a gap between each beep. The duration of the gap depends on that last
gap that was encountered. It defaults to 10mS upon a cold start.
