8102 Analog Sets

[Duaneness]

I have several 8102 sets that make three fast "beeps" when you pick up the handset. I've replaced the phones and the problems go away. I assume it's an indicator that the internal battery on that phone is dead or dying. Are these batteries replaceable? I have a boat-load of these phones in service, and would hate to have to replace them all over the next year as they croak......

Thanks in advance -

Tones and Their Meanings
Ringing tones are produced by an incoming call. Handset tones are those which
you hear through the handset (receiver).
Ringing Tones
l 1 ring — A call from another extension.
l 2 rings — A call from outside or from the attendant.
l 3 rings — A priority call from another extension, or from an Automatic Callback
call you placed.
l ring-ping (half ring) — A call redirected from your telephone to another because
Send All Calls or Call Forwarding All Calls is active.
Handset Tones
auto answer tone — A short burst of tone immediately following a ring when the
Auto Answer feature is active.
busy tone — A low-pitched tone repeated 60 times a minute; indicates the
number dialed is in use.
call waiting tone — One, two, or three beeps of high-pitched tone, not repeated;
indicates an incoming call is waiting to be answered. Number of beeps designates
the source: one for an internal call, two for an outside or attendant call, three for
a priority call.
call waiting ringback tone — A ringback tone with a lower-pitched signal at the
end; indicates that the extension called is busy, but the called party has been
given a call waiting tone.
confirmation tone — Three short bursts of tone; indicates a feature activation or
cancellation has been accepted.
coverage tone — One short burst of tone; indicates your call will be sent to
another extension to be answered by a covering user.
dial tone — A continuous tone; indicates dialing can begin.
intercept/time-out tone — An alternating high and low tone; indicates a dialing
error, denial of the service requested, or a failure to dial within a preset interval
(usually 10 seconds) after lifting the handset or dialing the previous digit.
programming tone — A low continuous tone when you are in programming mode
(programming a programmable dialing button).
recall dial tone — Three short bursts of tone followed by a steady dial tone;
indicates the feature request has been accepted and dialing can begin.
reorder tone — A fast busy tone repeated 120 times a minute; indicates all
trunks are busy.
ringback tone — A low-pitched tone repeated 15 times a minute; indicates the
number dialed is being rung.

That's a lot of tones, Phoneman2
But since the tones disappear when the station is replaced, I doubt it's coming from Definity (or the old sets would have to have some internal hotdialing feature, to which Definity responds with confirmation tone). I'm not familiair with the 8102 set, so I don't know about a battery.

Cheers,
Nico
