Hunter SprinklerXC800 X-Core 8-Station Outdoor Only Sprinkler Timer

Programador Hunter clásico pero versión para exteriores, más fuerte y con puerta con llave.

Bought it as replacement for old controller. Easy to install. Easy to red instruction. Easy to operate. No silly phone or WiFi connection (which is good).

Kann diesen Artikel in Deutschland nicht verwenden da nur 120VAC. Eine Beschreibung welche Art von Stromanschluss wäre von Vorteil gewesen. Eine Rücksendung kommt nicht in Frage, weil ich die Versandkosten von 49,99 Euro übertrieben finde. Schade das ist das erste Mal, das ich so einen Kauf negativ bewerten muss. Nicht aussreichende Artikelbeschreibung.

From all indications, this is a very well made controller. Installation was pretty much straight forward. No mounting template was included by Hunter so I created one by tracing the backside of the controller. The template greatly simplified pre-drilling the mounting holes and preinstalling the necessary anchors. I also temporarily removed the door to keep it from swinging shut during the installation. Setting the date and programming took a less than 5 minutes thanks to a very intuitive display and controls. I'm pleased.2021 Update: After two years of use and the controller is still functioning perfectly and, perhaps of more interest, I've learned several tricks about programming.First: It pays to revisit the Owner's Manual after a season or two of use. When I became frustrated about not being able to manually start a full cycle of all stations without having to first temporarily change one of the program's start time, I found a thing called a "test program." With the dial in the RUN position, press and hold the PRG button. The station number will be displayed and the time will be flashing for two seconds. Use the plus or minus or buttons to set the run time from 1 to 15 minutes. The run time needs to be entered only once and after a slight, 2 second pause, the test program will start.Someone asked about setting up a dwell time between watering each station and from my experience the answer is both yes and no. The controller has a built in feature that allows setting the dwell time between stations of 0 seconds up to 4 hours. If one needed a longer dwell time (highly unlikely) then, from a technical point of view, the dwell time could be set much longer.Because the timer has three (3) program settings and each of the three has three (3) separate, available start times it would allow you to set nine (9) individual start and run times for up to nine (9) separate stations. Even if you’re skilled at programming the timer, this could take some time to get set up correctly. The good news is that the program can then be safely stored in non-volatile memory for future use.See page 26 of the users manual for using the built in program for setting the dwell time between stations. One Dwell setting applies to all stations. Once the Dwell time, the Start time and the Station times are set, then each station runs in sequence and the dwell time is added to the over all program run time. I've attached a copy of my cheat sheet that's served me well these past couple of years. My Dwell is currently set to zero.Hope this help with your decision on what to buy and/or how to use.

This is for an 8 zone sprinkler system. Very easy to hook up.In my case you clip the power cord, and attach the existing wires to the 24V terminals (and just remove those wires and tuck back, don't need to cap) and attach the 8 wires for the zone and pod to go.
