Hi Frans,
Ours did that as well, so we adjusted the sensitivity until it stopped
beeping on the ground. It still gave us the in-flight margin we had
originally set it for. I suspect the stall 'speed' is more a function
of the placement of the hole in the wing than the sensitivity
adjustment.
Regards,

Subject: Europa-List: Europa stall warner
<frans@privatepilots.nl>
With the benign stall characteristics of the PH-DIY and plenty of
natural warning before stalling, a stall warner is not really necessary.
But I had already installed the stall warner before the plane was
finished, so I decided to adjust it anyway.
After I adjusted the Europa stall warner to 6 knots above the stall, I
noticed that the stall warner warns when I'm parked at the ground.
Technically this is correct of course, a non flying airplane is
permanently in a stall condition, but is it supposed to work this way?
Frans
