INTRODUCTION
Product Description:
Your new POWER PET Electronic Pet Door is like no other pet door made.
Patented POWER PETTM electronic pet doors are fully automatic, mo-
tor driven and open completely under their own power. Activated by
an ultrasonic pet collar, your new POWER PET door will keep out stray
animals. It is secure against wind, rain, cold and snow and provides much
better insulation than a conventional ap door. Your new POWER PET
door features an attractive, high-strength door panel that quickly and
quietly powers upward disappearing into the stylish housing. Your pets
are empowered to come and go as they please while their animal friends
are politely asked to stay out.

POWER PET doors increase home security with a special automatic, dead-
bolt locking feature that guards against would-be intruders. Only the
coded signal from your pet’s collar will open the Power Pet door.
Only Power Pet doors feature an ingenious directional sensing system
that operates a fully automatic, motor driven panel. The signal emitted
from your pet’s collar tells the Power Pet door how far away your pet is
and the direction in which your pet is traveling. This allows the Power
Pet to work like magic, opening only when your pet is on a direct ap-
proach, not when it is just wandering by and not when it is sitting or
sleeping next to the door.
ALL NEW DESIGN!
After selling thousands of our original POWER PET, PP
models we are very pleased to introduce our All New, com-
pletely redesigned and restyled PX Model. We listened to
the feedback of hundreds of customers and threw in a few
ingenious, new ideas of our own to bring you the ultimate
combination of security, style and convenient features.
The PX model, which features an extremely slim design, is
less than 2 inches deep. This allows it to be mounted ush
to your door or wall. You cut a hole only as large as the door
panel itself, then mount your POWER PET door in front of
the opening. You will nd it is actually easier to install a
POWER PET door than a conventional pet door and certainly
easier than installing a “between the studs type door”
The PX is constructed of an ultra-high strength ABS com-
posite housing with a bullet-proof Lexan plastic door panel, giving you
and your pet the ultimate in security. The Lexan panel is mounted on a
sliding, air-tight seal for the best wind, rain and foul weather protection
of any pet door made.
This new, absolutely state of the art design represents unquestionably
the most advanced, most reliable, most stylish pet door made anywhere.
In fact, your new POWER PET Fully Automatic Pet Door will be the most
sophisticated appliance your pet will ever own!

Your POWER PET door package includes:
• One Pet Transmitter Collar (Model MS-4 or MS-5 Ultrasonic
Transmitter Collar)
• 110 volt AC Adapter (connects to either Power Input Jack on edge of
inside frame)
• Pre-Fabricated Outside Frame
• All Required Hardware
(Wall Adapter Tunnel, Rechargeable Battery, Battery Charger Kit and Extra
Transmitter Collars are sold separately.)
PET COLLAR
OPERATED
Only the amazing POWER
PET door uses our Patented
directional ultrasonic sens-
ing system. This system
has great advantages over
magnetic or radio transmit-
ter collars.
Magnetic collars have a
very limited range making
it tough to train the pet to
operate the door. Radio
systems have good range but
open whenever the animal is
within that range, even if the
pet is sitting, sleeping or just
wandering by.
The Power Pet’s directional ultrasonic system overcomes these prob-
lems. The Pet worn ultrasonic collar emits a highly directional signal,
which is received by the microphone only when your pet is directly fac-
ing the door opening. The unit is not likely to trigger if your pet is just
wandering by.
Typically the ultrasonic signal is bounced off the ground in the direc-
tion which your pet is facing. This means that surfaces which are highly
reective such as tile and linoleum will result in a longer working range
than acoustically absorbent surfaces such as carpeting. Consult the
ADJUSTING RANGE CONTROLS section for instructions on setting the
desired opening range.

INSTALLATION
POWER PET Electronic Pet Door Sliding Glass Insert
High Tech Pet has incorporated their amazing fully automatic POWER
PET door into a stylish sliding glass door panel that can be easily
installed right alongside your exising sliding glass door.
Your sliding glass POWER PET door is pre-installed in the sliding glass
insert, which means your installation takes just minutes.
1. Insert the pre-made glass panel
onto the track of your sliding
glass door. (Figure 1)
2. Release the spring loaded top with
the 2 thumbscrews and it
automatically adjusts itself to the
height of your door. (Figure 2)
3. Push the panel against the inner wall
and tighten the thumbscrews. (Figure 2)
4. Carefully peel and apply the weather stripping
along the edge of the POWER PET door to
provide a seal between the POWER PET door
and the sliding glass door. (Figure 3)
FIGURE 1
FIGURE 2
FIGURE 3

___________________________________________________________________________________________
High Tech Pet Products, Inc. www.hightechpet.com 7
High Tech Pet does not stop at weather stripping. Our sliding glass doors
must meet our rigid standards of weather resistance, so we go a step
further and supply a draft stopper!
5. Apply the draft stopper to the back
of your sliding glass door. (Figure 4)
6. Peel the clear protective adhesive from the outside tinted door.
Installing the Locking Pin
1. Before mounting the locking mechanism, remove any screws that
might obstruct attachment on your sliding door.
2. Position locking pin as low as
possible on the edge of the slid-
ing door while still being able to
push and pull the pin for locking
and release. Mark where a hole
should be drilled in the station-
ary sliding door to accept the pin
when the sliding door is closed
tightly against the PX-SGL Pet
Door. (Figure 5)
FIGURE 4
FIGURE 5

3. Drill the hole rst using a 1/8 inch drill
bit and then nishing with a 1/4 inch
drill bit. (Figure 6) Be careful to not
penetrate the drill bit beyond the frame
material (aluminum or PVC). Drilling too
deep may damage the glass or the glass
seal. Drill just deep enough to create a
1/4 inch hole for the pin to engage.
4. Insert the lock pin in the drilled hole
and hold the lock in position while
you mark the two mounting slots
on the edge of the sliding door.
(Figure 7)
When doing this, position the lock
so that it will not interfere with
anything while opening and closing
the door.
5. Remove the lock and using a 1/8 inch
drill bit, drill pilot holes for two screws
to hold the lock to the sliding door.
(Figure 8)
Drill only deep enough to produce a
hole in the sliding door frame. Drilling
too deep may damage the glass or
glass seal.

6. Position the lock with the pin extended
into the 1/4 inch hole, and fasten the
lock to the door using two supplied self
tapping screws. (Figure 9)
Operation: Pull the pin to allow open-
ing of the door. Close the door and
push in the pin to lock the door closed.

Battery Installation
To install the battery, open the battery compartment, and align the two
battery lugs with the two lug sockets on the inner wall of the battery
compartment. Then press the battery to mate it to the sockets. When
done the battery should be ush with the wall, and the compartment
cover should t comfortably over the installed battery.
An installed battery is automatically charged whenever the AC Adaptor is
powering the door.
Battery Status Indicators
The OK light is illuminated when the battery is more than one-third charged.
The LOW light illuminates when the battery is less than one-third
charged.
Note that during door opening these indicators may reverse for a
few seconds when the battery is below one-half charge. This is nor-
mal and gives a little advance notice of an impending low battery.
Battery Operation
Whenever AC Power is unavailable and a charged battery is installed, the
front panel indicators go into a low power mode where they blink every
four seconds instead of remaining on continuously. This feature allows
the battery to power the door for up to two months or 500 openings.
ADVANCED FEATURES
INTRINSICALLY SAFE OPERATION
The POWER PET electronic pet door is intrinsically safe. It uses an
electric motor and cable drive to lift the door panel. The panel remains
open until the pet collar signal is gone, indicating that your pet is clear
of the opening. When the pet collar signal is gone, power to the motor is
turned off and the panel is returned by the force of gravity only. Down-
ward speed is reduced by an electronic brake applied to the reverse mo-
tion of the motor. This brake operates with or without electrical power.
Because the panel is returned by simple gravity, the maximum force
that can be applied by the panel when it is closing is limited to its own
weight. The door panel weighs only about 2 lbs.
AUTO RETRACT FEATURE
As an added safety feature, the POWER PET also has a sensing system
that automatically raises the panel should it encounter an obstruction
on the way down. This feature can be defeated in the unusual case that

___________________________________________________________________________________________
12 www.hightechpet.com High Tech Pet Products, Inc.
binding or other restriction slows the door closure to the point that it un-
necessarily retracts. See the AUTOMATIC SAFETY RETRACT Section for
more information.
AUTO DEAD BOLT LOCKING FEATURE
The POWER PET door uses a spring loaded locking pin which automati-
cally snaps into its retaining hole when the movable panel comes to rest in
the closed position. The pin can only be released when the motor applies
tension to the cable. This makes it impossible for even the most clever
animals (and people) to raise the panel mechanically.
THREE DIFFERENT POWER CHOICES: Your new POWER PETTM Door may
be operated in three different power modes.
1. 110 volt AC Wall Outlet: Your standard POWER PETTM Door comes stan-
dard with a U.L. approved AC adapter. Plug the adapter into a nearby
wall outlet for continuous operation.
2. AC with Battery Back-up: You may purchase an optional recharge-
able battery for use along with your AC adapter. If your household
electricity should ever fail, your POWER PETTM Door will automatically
switch over to battery operation. When power is restored, the AC
adapter will automatically recharge your battery.
3. Full Battery Operation: You may also operate your POWER PETTM Door
with the battery only. This eliminates the need for the AC adapter or
any electrical power connection. However, you will need to recharge
the battery periodically. (Recharge interval varies depending upon
use.) In this case, we recommend that you purchase the optional
battery and a battery charger kit. With the charger kit you get a bat-
tery charger and an extra battery. Use one battery in your POWER
PETTM Door and keep the other in the charger. When your door battery
runs low, just swap.
DUAL RANGE CONTROLS: Individual range control to allow you to adjust
different activation distances for inside and outside of your home. (Usu-
ally, it’s a good idea to use a short distance of a foot or two inside, and a
longer 4 to 5 foot distance outside.) Your new POWER PET PX gives you
full control. Note: range markings on the door are not in units of distance,
but rather in signal strength. A marking of 10 produces the maximum
distance.

___________________________________________________________________________________________
High Tech Pet Products, Inc. www.hightechpet.com 13
Adjusting the Range
When you rst 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. Specically 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 icker or ash 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 icker or ash
on. This means you may want to decrease slightly the OUTSIDE knob
setting. A little ickering once in a while is normal. A lot of ickering or
continuous ashing 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.

___________________________________________________________________________________________
14 www.hightechpet.com High Tech Pet Products, Inc.
1. Press OFF button
2. Press and hold one or both sensor
buttons to select hold up time
3. Press OFF button
to save this hold up
time
4. Press ON button to
power the door.
When shipped from the factory the hold up time is set to 4 seconds. We
recommend you initially introduce your pet to the door with a long hold
up time. Later you can reduce the hold up time if desired.
HOLD OPEN FEATURE: A new feature introduced in 2012 allows the
door to be manually opened and stay open for any length of time.
If you wish to leave the door open for an extended time period, use the
Hold Open Mode, as follows. The door panel will remain open as long as
power is available.
The opening motor is energized the entire time the door is open. So
if using only a battery to power the door, and you do not have an AC
Power Adaptor plugged into the door, use this feature sparingly to keep
from discharging the battery in just a few hours.

AUTOMATIC SAFETY RETRACT: Your POWER PET PX is intrinsically safe
for all pets and people, including small children. The door panel weighs
less than 2 lbs. and is closed smoothly by gravity (not the motor) and is
too light to cause any physical injury. However, just to be doubly safe
around infants, we’ve included an automatic safety retract feature. This
feature causes the panel to instantly retract if it encounters an obstruc-
tion during closure.
DEFEATING THE AUTOMATIC SAFETY RETRACT: Under unusual
conditions, such as a warped wall mounting, the door sometimes
may close so slowly that the auto-retract feature triggers the door to
re-open unnecessarily. In these cases it may be desirable to defeat
the Automatic Safety Retract feature. Do this by rst pressing the
OFF button to turn off the door controls and all the lights. Leave the
door powered by the wall wart or battery when you do this. Then
while holding down the MANUAL OPEN button, press and release the
OUTSIDE SENSOR button. The OUTSIDE light will blink to indicate the
feature has been disabled.
ENABLING AUTOMATIC SAFETY RETRACT: Similarly you may en-
able the Automatic Safety Retract feature at any time. Do this by rst
pressing the OFF button to turn off the door controls and all the lights.
Leave the door powered by the wall wart or battery when you do this.
Then while holding down the MANUAL OPEN button, press and release
the INSIDE SENSOR button. The INSIDE light will blink to indicate the
feature has been enabled. When shipped from the factory, the auto-
matic safety retract feature is enabled.
After Defeating or Enabling the feature, press the POWER ON button
to resume normal door operation.

ADJUSTING THE STRAP
1. Fasten the collar around your pet’s neck
so that it ts comfortably. In most cases
there will be excess strap length.
2. With a soft pencil or magic marker, mark
the amount of strap to be removed
leaving at least one inch past the D-ring
buckle.
3. Remove the collar from your pet and cut
off the excess strap at the mark.
4. To avoid fraying carefully heat the cut
end with an open ame to melt and fuse
the material.
5. Put the collar on your pet.
Now, set your desired range and access per your user manual.
You and your pet are now ready to enjoy the freedom and beauty of
your POWER PET sliding glass door.
If you still have questions, give us a call at 800-255-1279 and, together,
we’ll make sure your pets can enjoy the life they deserve.
Your High Tech Pet MS-4 or MS-5 transmitter collar will operate for 3 to
5 months on a single, easily replaceable battery.

WATER RESISTANCE
The High Tech MS-4 ultrasonic transmitter collar is water resistant meaning
that rainy weather and humidity will not damage the unit. These collars are
NOT designed to be fully immersed in water. Should this occur, simply open
the unit, shake out water and let dry. In most cases the unit will function
normally. However the life of the battery will likely be reduced or the bat-
tery may require replacement.
The MS-5 collar is fully waterproof to a 3 foot depth.
TRAINING YOUR PET
Training your pet to use its new POWER PET door should be a relatively
effortless task. Some pets may become startled by the sound and move-
ment of the panel, but be patient. Nearly every pet will soon be used to the
POWER PET’S operation and learn to love using its own personal entry. We
recommend that you lead your pet to the door and allow it to open sev-
eral times to teach the animal the cause and effect relationship between
pet and door. Then place a food reward on the opposite side and lead the
animal through the opening, allowing it to get the reward on the other side.
Repeat several times. Before too long your pet will get the idea. If your pet
doesn’t get it in one sitting, remain patient and let your pet just walk around
on its own for awhile. It won’t take too much more time for your pet to
realize the POWER PET opens whenever the pet comes its way. One of the
most frequent comments we hear from POWER PET owners is how much
their pets love using their POWER PET door. We are sure your pet will feel
the same!
REPLACEMENT PARTS
Over the years you may need to replace damaged or worn out parts. High
Tech Pet Products offers complete refurbishment of the door at our facility
