Digital step-KM counter

Guys, I've got a circuit for this device from "Digital Step-Km Counter - RED - Page9" , but there is problem... i.e., there's a buzzer which is to be sound when mercury switch is 'ON',(through walking)... BUT it beeps constantly...😡

Can anyone provide me the right schematic...? 😔

    Is it a some kind of digital distance meter?
    Can somebody explain its working??

    Hmm !!!
    It is a bit tedious to explain this circuit, because there is a reason for each and every value of R & C used.

    Best is to use a simulation to check only the IC1A,B,C part with the transistors. That may give a clue to why your buzzer is always buzzing !!!
