The command that you want is sound().
sending a beep character to the console out isn't a very effective
method.  sound(freq).. You will need to apply a delay.
sound(0) will turn it off.
you might try something like this.

global procedure beep()
  atom t

  sound(600)
  t = (time() + 0.05)
  while (t > time()) do
  end while
  sound(0)
  t = (time() + 0.05)
  while (t > time()) do
  end while
end procedure

for A = 1 to 3 do
  beep()
end for
