Can panic button be triggeed via keyfobs or you have to reach out to the keypad

There's a red button on the top which if held for 2 seconds will trigger the alarm and whatever monitoring options you have. If you have no monitoring package it will just trigger the siren.

What is the response to the panic button being pressed if you have the top monitoring package. Do they call the police straight away?

Hi, thanks for your question. If you're at home during a break-in, pressing the Panic Button instantly triggers your alarm. With professional monitoring, our monitoring centre will call and check if you're okay. If you don't answer your phone or give the “safe word”, and we can visually verify an incident on the SimpliCam, we will alert the police that you're in danger.

How many keyfobs can I add up to?

I'm guessing as many as you like. I had 2.

Do you have to subscribe to pro for this to work?

The Key Fob will work to arm and disarm the system without a subscription and the inbuilt panic button will trigger the alarm but won't be linked to the alarm receiving centre.

Works as it should - but looses stars due to the fact I had to buy it as I can't replace the batteries in the old one!
