Default Beeping noise using trickle charger

Hello, Car goes dead if it sits for 3- 4 weeks so i have trickle charger. I had disconnected it to clean the car and forgot to plug back in so it went dead. (newer good battery) I plugged it back in last night and this morning its making a beeping sort of noise I would say coming from near the glove box. The under hood light blinks very dull to the same beat of the beeping. Unplug it and it stops. Car is still dead.
Any ideas? Thanks

Default Solved?

I think I might have figured it out. Battery was to dead for trickle to do anything. I just put my regular battery charger on it and its charging ... no beeping. Its a 2002 Z06 Quicksilver with Mod red interior 40K mile I've owned it for 8 years bought from original owner in Florida Had 32K when I bought it. Great car..

You got it, trickle chargers will not revive a dead battery. They just put out enough amps to maintain the charge
