Sequences of four or eight beeps

If you hear a sequence of four or eight beeps immediately after you have started the system, the self-test has
detected an equipment failure. Turn all units off, check their connections, and try again. If you hear the sequence
again, write it down, and call our local service representative as instructed later in this chapter.
