Default 1st gen. knock alert???

Today I installed my autometer boost gauge and mbc. The controller does'nt spike and I don't have any boost leaks. I made one run with the 10psi setting. It held 10 and only started to drop off in high rpms. After some more quick runs I accidentally hit 15 psi. Oops. After a few more runs I fine tuned it at 14 psi. The only problem is on a long pull after I hit full boost at 14 psi I hear a long beeeeeeep until I let off. I'm assuming this is the stock knock alert unless someone put one on my car. It only happened a few times. How bad would the count be at 14 or could it just be false knock? I also thought you would'nt get much knock or any knock at 14 psi. I think it beeped once at 13 psi too. Could the knock alert beep but a datalogger monitor no knock??? Any help is appreciated. I don't really want to keep stock boost until I can buy a piggyback fuel system.
