Connecting The Expansion Module - Hunter Hydrawise HC-1200M Quick Start Manual

Connecting The Expansion Module

Power for the Expansion Module is supplied by the master controller via a cable between
the units. Note that only the 12 zone controller supports expansion modules.
1. Using the cable supplied, connect the Master
Controller and Expansion Module. The Master
Controller has a single expansion module port.
Each Expansion Module has 2 expander ports.
Connect the cable between the port on the
Master Controller and the port on the
Expansion Module.
2. Once the cable is connected the Expansion
Module will power up.
3. Click the blue wiring cover into place to seal the
controller and protect the wiring.
Configure The Expansion Module ID
Each Expansion Module must have an Expansion Module ID configured – you need to do
this only once. You can choose any Expansion Module ID between either 1 and 2 as long
as it is unique to your installation.
1. Select the Expansion Module ID by touching the number on the Expansion Module's
touch screen.
2. The ID will change to an orange color indicating the configured Expansion Module's ID.
When the Expansion Module ID is configured for your controller (see next section) this
color will change to green and the status will change to Online to indicate a successful
connection between the master controller and the expansion module.
