Page 6: Introduction
2. Introduction Congratulations on your purchase of the SureFlap DualScan Microchip Cat Flap. This cat flap has been designed to recognise either the microchip already implanted in your cat or the SureFlap RFID Collar Tag (sold separately). The SureFlap DualScan Microchip Cat Flap is suitable for multi-pet households to control the access of your pets both into and out of the house. -
Page 7: Microchip Type
3. Microchip Type The DualScan cat flap is compatible with all the following types of microchip commonly used for pets. • 15-digit microchips (also known as FDXB) • 10-digit microchips (also known as FDXA) except those with codes starting 000..., 010..., or 020... -
Page 8: Learn Mode (And Changing Permissions)
5. Learn Mode (and changing permissions) To start operation, the DualScan cat flap needs to learn the unique ID code of your cat’s microchip or collar tag. Unless you want to change the permissions for your cat(s), this process is only required once, as the code is permanently stored, even if the batteries are removed. The microchip numbers or collar tag codes of up to 32 different cats can be stored in memory. - Page 9 5.3 Changing the entry/exit permissions for your cat You can change the permissions for any of your cats at any time; for example if a cat who is allowed outside now needs to be kept in due to illness or injury, or a kitten who was indoor only is now allowed outside.

Page 10: Installation
6. Installation DIY installation may involve the use of power tools or cut glass. Safety equipment (gloves, eye protection, etc.) should be used and if in doubt consult a professional to carry out the installation. Suitable door types Instructions are provided for installation in all door types, including wooden, plastic, glass, and metal. - Page 11 Mount the external frame on the outside of the house. Depending on the thickness of the door, the tunnel will protrude through the frame by differing amounts. Under no circumstances should you cut or drill through the tunnel as this contains the microchip reader and will prevent the unit from working properly.
- Page 12 6.2 Installation in glass doors or windows When working with cut glass always wear protective gloves as the edges may be sharp. SureFlap is ideal for mounting in single or double-glazed windows. If you need to have a hole cut in a window, please ask a qualified glazier to do it, as cutting glass is a skilled job. If you need to get a hole cut in your window a circular hole with a diameter of 212mm (8 3/8”) is the ideal size.

- Page 14 6.3 Installation in metal doors The presence of a metal plate in a door can influence the performance of the DualScan cat flap, reducing the range of the microchip reader. This includes the following: • Metal skin doors • Security doors •...
- Page 15 6.4 Installation in walls When you are making holes through the wall of your property please consult a qualified builder. Protective clothing (gloves, eye & ear protection etc.) should be worn when carrying out the installation. Note: When planning the installation of a DualScan cat flap into a wall, remember that you may need to remove the cat flap in the future to replace the door or upgrade to a newer model.
- Page 16 16. To hold the end of the tunnel in position we recommend using small screws to secure the tunnel to the external frame as shown in Figure 27. 17. We recommend putting some waterproof sealant between the tunnel and the external frame to prevent water getting into the wall cavity.

6.5 Electrical interference The DualScan cat flap contains a sensitive radio receiver to pick up the signal from your cat’s microchip. In rare instances, excessive levels of electrical interference can cause the range of the system to degrade. Avoid the following situations: The DualScan cat flap should not be used in the vicinity of other microchip readers or similar low frequency devices. -
Page 18: Normal Operation
8. Normal Operation Normal operation couldn’t be simpler. Once programmed, the DualScan cat flap controls the access of your pets both into and out of the house. This allows you to restrict some pets to indoors-only, while others are allowed outside and back in again. Any intruder animals attempting entry are kept outside. -
Page 19: Way Manual Lock
9. 4-way Manual Lock The manual lock has 4 positions which control the opening of the flap in either direction. The unit is shipped in position 4 (locked both directions) to keep the flap secure in transit. This should be changed to position 1 before programming. Note that the door of the DualScan cat flap must hang straight down when you move the lock as it engages with the bottom of the door. -
Page 20: Low Battery Indicator
10. Low Battery Indicator Batteries last typically for at least 6 months with normal levels of use. When the batteries are nearing the end of their life, the low battery indicator comes on. This is a slow red flash of the indicator lamp, once every 5 seconds. -
Page 21: Maintenance
13. Maintenance The sensors that detect the presence of a cat in the tunnel are optical and are situated on the inside and outside of the cat flap as shown opposite. If these lenses become obscured by dirt, unreliable operation and/or shortened battery lifetime may result. - Page 22 Symptom: The DualScan cat flap only works for my cat in one direction • Check that the sensors are clean on both the inside and outside of the door. • Relearn your cat into the cat flap using normal mode (see section 5.1). •...
