You admit you have no experience but will follow instruction, plenty who have experience, are shite and won't follow instruction so I'd say you heads above.
Sort of makes sense I guess, I don't have any sounders per-se on the system only the keypads (not had any internal sounders in over 10 years) would make a noise so technically any fault other than a total wipeout would cause local indication on at least one of the 4 keypads dotted around.
