How the passport
™
Intelligent Cat flap Works
With its advanced entry and exit technology, the Passport
™
Intelligent Cat Flap provides freedom and peace of mind no other Cat Flap offers. Using
radio frequency identification (R.F.I.D.) technology, the Cat Flap identifies the unique code in your cat’s implanted microchip or the Passport
™
Key
worn on your cat’s collar. When your cat approaches the Cat Flap the flaps will respond according to the settings you have programmed for that
cat. The Cat Flap will remain locked and deny access to cats that are not programmed, wild animals, pests, and strays. Offering advanced selective
entry and exit by cat, multiple access options (such as In-Only Access and Out-Only Access), and the option to only allow access at specific times
of day, the Cat Flap gives you complete control of each cat’s access. You can set access individually by cat or easily set the same access setting
for all cats with the Master Access option. The Pet Tracking feature shows your cat’s current location and the last 4 times your cat used the Cat Flap,
allowing you to monitor your cat’s access. Programming is easy using the LCD Screen and 5-Button Navigation or by connecting to your computer
with included USB cable. The Passport
™
Intelligent Cat Flap is programmable for up to 20 pets.
This model of the Passport
™
Intelligent Cat Flap (PPA19-20558) reads the most common type of microchip implanted in cats, the FDX-B (15 digit)
microchip, using radio frequency identification (R.F.I.D.) technology. If you are not sure what type of microchip your cat has, please either ask your
veterinarian or visit
www.petsafe.net
and navigate to our Chip Checker, microchip compatibility checker, and enter your microchip code to
verify that your microchip is compatible. Occasionally a microchip migrates to a position within the cat that the scanner cannot read reliably.
There is a R.F.I.D. identification tag provided, the Passport
™
Key, which will need to be used on your pet if any of the following apply:
• Your cat does not have an implanted FDX-B microchip
• Your cat’s implanted FDX-B microchip has migrated out of the Cat Flap’s read range
• You are using the Cat Flap for a small dog
This key can be programmed to your Passport
™
Intelligent Cat Flap and will communicate with your Cat Flap in the same manner as the implanted
microchip when worn on your pet’s collar.
Based on your type of pet, the following table indicates your programming options:
Now that you know which R.F.I.D. technology is appropriate for your use, please note:
throughout the rest of this Installation Guide and the operating Guide, when you see the word “microchip” this is
referring to either your cat’s implanted fDX-B microchip or the passport
™
Key, as applicable based on the table above.
Follow all steps under “Prepare, Setup and Test”, including “Test Microchip”, before starting installation.
