Got a manual?

Or is this it?

There is a troubleshooting section- certain numbers of beeps mean certain things. Some are user correctable, others require a service tech.

If it is not in use, then you can simply disconnect the alarm/siren/loud sound making component by disassembling it to the point of observing the wires leading into the the component and unplugging them or whatever.
Battery chirps generally come from the main control box and are emanated through the keypad component via a tiny speaker. Open up the main control box and you will see a battery similar to a small car battery. Disconnect that and there will be no more battery chirps.

thanks folks. DH got back in town in time to dissemble the darn thing after kids and I had to listen to it for 3 hours. We did find some ear plugs but the pets are all bug eyed and jittery.
