Default Question about alarm system

When I arm it (lock doors, etc.) should I hear the horn sound briefly? Or should I hear a beep/chirp? When I arm mine, I just hear a chirp/beep, no horn. Is my alarm defective or not arming?

The arm sound is just a high pitched beep - not the normal horn sound.

Oh ok thanks. I wonder why the manual says the horn will sound when armed.
