Is there a reason why a GS would start beeping for a few seconds then stop? I know its not battery over or under.

There are no "beep codes" in a Genetry Solar inverter. Sounds like I need to put an "alarm triggered" function in the firmware, so you can see if an alarm has been triggered in the current session.
hmmm. the only other device in that room would have been the Make sky blue chargers, but I don't think they got beepers in them as far as I know. Odd.
It probably was one of the inverters. Just there's no "alarm history" on them, so unless the alarm is currently active, you wouldn't know what it was.
Wait... what? The GS will beep during overload warning prior to actually faulting. (No harm no fowl if the overload condition ends prior to a full fault)
I've confirmed this countless times now. It sounds slightly like an stopwatch alarm. Or like masterchiefs shield alarm. 😄

So @the-blind-wolf was asking if there were specific "beep codes" corresponding to specific alarms--as he can't see to read what's on the display. There aren't: every alarm just beeps the beeper.
So for his usecase (and for general user info), I'm now thinking of adding a "alarm triggered" register, where you could come back and see if (for example) the inverter overload alarm was triggered at any point since startup ("the session"). A most rudimentary "history" of sorts.
Hmm. Funny. We both got a completely different idea of what he was asking. 😄
I was answering the "Is there a reason why a GS would start beeping for a few seconds then stop?" in a very literal way. Indeed, yes, when the inverter is actively overloading until it's not anymore.
Taking the "topic title" into account, it does kinda sound like "beeping code" as in "decodeable beeping alarms".

yup, I was also confused as to what the opening post was about until I saw the topic title...
