IBM 3153 ASCII Terminal Display - Beeps every few seconds during power on

Applicable to: World-Wide

Symptom:
The 3153 beeps every few seconds when the 3153 is powered on.
Background Information:
When a 3153 key is pressed, the 3153 sends the host a single alphanumeric character or an ASCII character sequence. The
operating system or application determines how it is processed.

Recommended Solution:
In most cases the beep is a result of the host operating system or application sending the 3153 a Bell (BEL) ASCII control character. A Bell (BEL) ASCII control character causes the 3153 to generate a 'beep' sound.

Persons should contact their system administrator, programmer, or application developer.
