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 of shielded cable.

CONNECTING TO THE HUNTER IRRIGATION MANAGEMENT AND
MONITORING SYSTEM™ (NOT INCLUDED) .......................................................................
With the IMMS™, automatic irrigation systems at multiple sites or multiple controllers at a single site can be programmed for functions that would
typically be handled directly at each controller. Scheduling of days to water, run times, start times, cycle and soak operations and more can now be
done from a single computer at a desk miles away from the actual installation. In addition, scheduled operation of non-irrigation components also in
use at these sites – e.g., lighting systems at athletic fields, fountains at shopping centers – as well as pumps and sensors can also be programmed
and monitored from a single central location. A key function of the IMMS is its ability to monitor changing conditions. With the aid of such options
as flow sensors, rain sensors and other weather-sensing devices, the IMMS can receive reports on the current condition at every site it is linked
with and then respond with the necessary adjustments should any of those conditions go beyond the limits that have been defined. It’s able to team
with any or all of the standard automatic controllers in the Hunter line-up, from the SRC to the Pro-C to the ICC. Plus, it’s a system that’s easy and
affordable to upgrade, making it possible to accommodate an expanding network of controllers. For more information on the IMMS software, contact
your local Hunter dealer.
The Hunter ICC-800 SAT Field Satellite Controllers are supplied with an IMMS Site or Controller Interface already prewired to the ICC Controller.
Installation is as simple as connecting AC power to and communication wires to the Controller and you're ready to operate the ICC from a central
computer. Reference IMMS Installation and Operating Instructions for further information.
The ICC-800 PL, ICC-800M/-800SS are all capable of operating with IMMS. Separate Site or Controller Interface hardware is required (ordered
separately). For more information on IMMS, contact your local Hunter dealer or visit the Hunter website at http://www.HunterIndustries.com
Due to the possibility of power failures, the controller has nonvolatile memory to preserve the program indefinitely. If no 9-volt battery is installed, the
controller will freeze time when the power goes out and resume, keeping time after power has been restored. If a battery is installed, the 9-volt battery
back up will keep time so the clock and calendar will be intact for up to three days. There is no default program so there will be no surprise watering.
