Wondering if anyone out there might have experience in knowing what's wrong and what I need to do to stop it. Owned it for 2 years, but I didn't do the installation myself.

Also if it needs repair or something, what might it cost me and how difficult would it be to do myself? Thanks in advance, I know someone here always has experience I lack lol

Not sure tbh. I don’t have one anything close to that model but I had a similar annoyance once.

From a brief read on that link I got the impression there were multiple battery modes and beep reasons. So I can’t really answer that but I hope you can but it probably depends on what it is and how it’s configured.

Edit: for example, it could possibly be beeping because it’s running on battery and not your normal power (2 min between beeps) or, or beeping just because a backup battery is low (30 seconds between beeps) on that particular page.

Every 30 seconds. But went and removed the battery -to stop the sound- and it's still running after plugging it back in lol. But I'll be buying 2 batteries from them for $51, and waiting until they're arrive. I guess it's a law in California to have a battery backup?
