Details

Actual frequency can be calculated as base_frq/(2*beep.divider). Setting this property to 0 is equivalent to 65536 (i.e. actual frequency will be base_frq/131072).

Base_frq depends on your platform -- you will find this information in the "Platform-dependent Programming Information" topic inside your platform specifications section.

Most low-cost buzzers have resonant frequency at which they emit the loudest sound. Check the specifications for your buzzer and set the divider accordingly.
