Keypad and panic button

I already have a stick up cam but I would like to get a panic button for precaution but I do not want to get a whole alarm system so I wanted to see if I can just buy the keypad and panic button if it will work this way?

    No, you need the alarm base station for either to work.

      Good question, @MrsQ! @Eagle328 hit the nail on the head with their answer. In order to install and operate any of our Ring Alarm devices, a Base Station is required as this is what provides the secure and dedicated connection for the Alarm devices. Starting with an [Alarm 5-piece security bundle](https://shop.ring.com/products/security-system-alarm-5) is highly recommended. Keep in mind, the [Keypad](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360042894911-Ring-Alarm-Keypad-2nd-gen-Lights-and-Buttons-Explained) has a police/ panic button as well, which is similar in functionality to the [Panic Button](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360022095492-Ring-Alarm-Panic-Button-Information). If you plan on signing up for Ring Protect Plus, or professional monitoring, there is also an [SOS feature](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360028657792-Using-the-SOS-Button-in-the-Ring-App) in the Ring app that becomes available upon subscribing. I hope this helps! :)
