Connecting To The Hunter Solar Sync - Hunter X-Core Owners Manual And Programming Instructions

NOTE: Any extension of the wiring on the SmartPort
may result in an error message in the controller display
and possible malfunction of the remote unit due to
radio interference. In some situations, lengthening of
the harness may work fine, in others it may not work
at all (it is site specific). In either case, extending the
wiring harness should be done using shielded cable
to minimize the possible effects of electrical noise.
For easiest installation, order a new Hunter SmartPort
shielded cable wiring harness (part #SRR-SCWH) with
a full 25 feet (7.6 meters) of shielded cable.

The Solar Sync is a sensor system that, when connected to Hunter
Pro-C, will automatically adjust your controller watering based upon
changes in local climate conditions. The Solar Sync utilizes a solar
and temperature sensor to measure on-site weather conditions used
to determine evapotranspiration (ET), or the rate at which plants and
turf use water. In addition, the Solar Sync sensor includes a Hunter
Rain-Clik and Freeze-Clik sensor that will shut down your irrigation
™ ™
system when it rains and/or during freezing conditions.
A small module connects the sensor to the controller and will auto-
matically increase or decrease watering run times based on changes
in weather. The result is a new water-efficient irrigation product
that promotes water conservation and healthier plants. You simply
program your controller like you normally would, and the Solar Sync
takes over from there, eliminating the need to manually adjust your
watering schedule.
