The Pet Porte Smart Flap has a hybrid power system enabling you to run it on batteries,
AC adaptor (supplied) or both AC adaptor with battery backup.

Running the cat flap on battery

It will run on a heavy duty 9 volt battery (the same size you might use in something like a
smoke detector) for at least six months. There is a choice of either having the cat flap open
or lock if the batteries run out and there is also a low-battery warning indicator.

Using the supplied AC adaptor

You can also use the supplied 12 volt adaptor that simply plugs in a nearby socket to power
the cat flap continuously. When you have the AC adaptor plugged in the Pet Porte goes into
Optimised mode and scans continuously so that your cat could run inside quickly if he or
she needs to.

Special note about the wiring

We recommend using the supplied AC adaptor that comes with a 2.25m cable together
with a 9 volt battery as battery backup if possible. We do stock a special 5 meter low
voltage extension cable if you require extra cable. This simply plugs in to the end of the AC
adaptor cable so you can neatly tack it around skirting boards etc. remembering to leave a
loop on the hinge to allow your door to open and close freely.
