Adjusting the Range
When you first install the POWER PET PX door, pre-set both RANGE
Controls - one at a time - to the desired activation distance as fol-
lows:
- Enable just the INSIDE or OUTSIDE sensor and set that RANGE control
to zero.
- Hold the collar at about your pet’s height, pointing down toward the
bottom of the door and at the desired activation distance from the
door.
- Slowly increase that RANGE Control setting until the panel opens.
- Repeat this for the other sensor.
- Now put the collar on the pet and, if necessary, readjust the RANGE
settings slightly to achieve the desired opening distance.
Just as your hearing of a conversation can be overpowered by loud
noises such as a lawn mower, the door sensors can also be overpowered
by loud ultrasonic noises. Specifically some sprinklers, lawn mowers and
vacuum cleaners can put out enough noise to temporarily mask the collar
signal. The POWER PET PX door has a unique feature which indicates
when the background noise level is too high. Whenever the INSIDE noise
is too loud, the INSIDE light will flicker or flash on. This means you may
want to decrease the INSIDE knob setting slightly. Likewise, whenever
the OUTSIDE noise is too high, the OUTSIDE light will flicker or flash
on. This means you may want to decrease slightly the OUTSIDE knob
setting. A little flickering once in a while is normal. A lot of flickering or
continuous flashing means the knob is set too high.
4 WAY ACCESS CONTROL:
Individual activation buttons for the inside
and outside sensors give you a 4-way access control system. You can
allow your pet to come in but not go out, go out but not come in, come in
and out or close and lock the door altogether
AUTOMATIC CLOSE CONTROL:
Your POWER PET PX Features a smart
sensing circuit that keeps the door panel open as long as it is receiving
the signal from your pet’s collar. Once your pet has moved completely
through the opening, the panel closes.
ADJUSTABLE HOLD UP TIME:
The door is held open for a short time to
let the pet get fully through the door before it starts closing. Depending
on the speed your pet moves, you may adjust the hold up time as follows.
