CONNECTING A HUNTER "CLIK" WEATHER SENSOR

A Hunter weather sensor or other micro-switch type weather
sensors can be connected to the X-Core. The purpose of this sensor
is to stop automatic watering when weather conditions dictate.

Testing the Weather Sensor

The X-Core provides simplified testing of a rain sensor when the
sensor is wired into the sensor circuit. You can manually test proper
operation of the rain sensor by running a AUTO CYCLE or by
activating the system using the One Touch AUTO CYCLE. During
the Manual cycle, pressing the Top spindle on the Mini-Clik

Manually Bypassing the Weather Sensor

If the rain sensor is interrupting irrigation,
you can bypass it by using the bypass switch
on the front of the controller. Slide the
switch to the SENSOR BYPASS position to
disable the rain sensor from the system to
allow for controller operation. When using
the MANUAL – ONE STATION function, the
controller will automatically bypass sensor inputs for the selected
time. Once complete, the controller will default to selected settings.
