Does it deliver the bells in the pitch, frequency, and duration of
the originating console, or does it always use the current console
settings?

I could see it being marginally useful to use the local console
(that's what SCO does), on the other hand, being able to identify
console beep origination by pitch would keep people from confusing
a local event (like a vi error bell) with an event that requires
their attention.
