Default 97 1500 keyless entry

I just recently got a 97 ram, I was wondering if these trucks were programmed to chirp the horn when you press the lock button on a remote. My truck does not honk when I lock it and i was wondering if this is some kind of option that can be turned on

Does it say anything in the owners manual about "light flash and horn?"

My '07 Tacoma has RKE but no horn, just light flash. (Yeah, I know, that's Toyota).
