What Do You Think This Beeping Means

Twice in the past week or so when I unlocked my doors with the key fob and got in, six beeps sounded. It was the same beep that happens when you push one of the driver preference buttons on the door handle, but six at once. I didn't see anything move or give some other indication what it meant. I don't recall reading about this in the owners manual. Does anyone have a suggestion?
 
I wonder if it has to do with security? I recall an aftermarket burglar alarm I had on a truck in the early 90's that would make a quick squack sound when I unlocked it to report an attempted break-in, or if the alarm had sounded. No idea if the Av's beeping is the same thing. I haven't heard it.
 
Just the unlock button on one of my fob's quick working suddenly the other day so i am using the other one I got at purchase. The only problem is when I lock the door with the fob while the door is open now, a chime sounds three times & it doesn't lock. The second time I push it, it locks. The other fob locked the door on the first try with no chimes. Anybody know what the deal is with this?? ???

It doesn't lock after 5 seconds or so? That's how it workd when you lock the doors with the inside button while it's open. Beeps 3 times to let you knw, then locks about 5 seconds after you close the door. Maybe one of the remotes works the same way. ???

I didn't think about the DIC settings for the second fob until txyank1 reminded me about the delayed locks, which I have turned off normally so I had never heard before. Thanks man.
