getting started guide
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.
