How it's made

Source
a clocked security-panel piezo driver at 1.25-2.8 kHz; every pulse and final tone share one pitch.
Body
a dominant sine plus weak phase-locked second and third harmonics represent disc nonlinearity. Upper harmonics settle in 25 ms; a 6 kHz low-pass represents the grille, without room reverberation.
Envelope
6 ms rounded startup, 65-105 ms short gates and 16 ms release; the disc rings down for 12 ms. The final 0.75-1.35 s gate sags by 12 percent before a 45 ms release, signalling completed arming.
Timing
10-16 short pulses fill 4.7 s; linearly shrinking intervals end at 18-45 percent of the first. A same-pitch long tone follows at 4.7 s; the default including silent tail is approximately 6 s.
Variation
rng sets one stable device tuning offset within 0.15 percent, never random timing or melody. Presets change register, pulse density, acceleration, gate width and harmonic edge for different panels.
