2. Slide the module into the appropriate
sequential position in the back of
the controller. Note that the station
numbers are identied on the back
panel, not the indi-
vidual modules.
3. Once all modules
are slid into place,
reactivate power to
the controller and
reinstall the battery.
Turning the power
off and then on
again permits the
microprocessor to
recognize the newly
installed modules.
Connecting the Battery (Optional)…
Connect a 9-volt alkaline battery (not
included) to the battery terminals and
place in the battery compartment in the
controller cabinet. The battery allows the
user to program the controller without AC
power. Watering will not occur without
AC power. Since this controller has non-
volatile memory, the program clock and
calendar will be retained during a power
outage even if no battery is installed.
Connecting a Master Valve…
1. At the Master Valve, attach the
common wire to either solenoid wire
of the valve. Attach a separate control
wire to the remaining solenoid wire.
2. Route the wires into the controller via
the eld wire conduit.
3. Connect either wire from Master
Valve to the P/MV terminal. Connect
remaining wire to the C (Common)
terminal.
Connecting a Pump Start Relay…
The controller should be mounted at least
15 feet (4.5 m) away from both the pump
start relay and the pump. When a pump is
to be operated by the controller, a pump
start relay must be used. Hunter offers a
full range a pump start relays for most
applications.

NOTE: Complete this section only if you
have a master valve installed. A master
valve is a normally closed valve installed
at the supply point of the main line that
opens only when the automatic system is
activated.
INSTALLATION
(Continued)
NOTE: Complete this section only if you
have a pump and pump start relay
installed. A pump start relay is an
electronic device that uses a signal current
from the irrigation controller to activate a
pump to provide water to your system.
