There’s no need to walk back to the controller to
start and stop a manual watering cycle when doing
maintenance or repair work on your irrigation system.
Winterization can be done quickly and easily with one
worker instead of two. No more going back to the
garage to start or stop a manual irrigation cycle.
Hunter is pleased to offer the ROAM XL Remote
Control System for use on Hunter controllers
equipped with a SmartPort
®
connection. The ROAM
XL can offer you features other remotes can’t, at a
price you can afford.
The ROAM XL transmitter is made of sturdy die cast
aluminum and outdoor grade plastic. It features a
large LCD and simple push button operation. Don’t
let its size fool you. While it’s small enough to t in
your pocket, it has an open eld range of up to 2
miles (3 km).
The large LCD display and simple ve-button control
make the ROAM XL a snap to use. Simply press the
or keys to display the station or program you
want to turn on or off, then press the or button–
what could be easier? Don’t worry about forgetting
to turn off the ROAM XL. After several minutes of
inactivity the unit turns itself off to extend battery
life. The unit can be turned back on by touching any
button. Four AAA alkaline batteries will last an entire
season for a contractor, and years for a homeowner.
We believe the ROAM XL is the simplest remote
control available. It is so easy to use that you will
need this booklet very little after installation. If you
do have a question, keep this in a safe place for easy
reference.
Congratulations—your life just got a little easier!
