The X-Core is compatible with the Solar Sync and Wireless Solar
Sync systems. Solar Sync is a sensor system that will automatically
adjust the X-Core controller’s watering schedule (based on changes
in local climate condition) by using the Seasonal Adjust function.
The Solar Sync uses a solar and temperature sensor to determine
evapotranspiration (ET), or the rate at which plants and turf use
water, and also includes Hunter Rain Clik and Freeze Clik technology
that will shut down irrigation when it rains and/or during freezing
conditions.
NOTE: Solar Sync will apply a default seasonal adjust
value of 100% until the rst full day (24 - hour period)
of weather measurements have been received from the
sensor.
NOTE: Enabling the Sensor Bypass switch has no eect
on the seasonal adjust updates from the Solar Sync
sensor. It will, however, bypass the Rain Clik and Freeze
Clik functionality of the sensor.
Installing Solar Sync Sensor
Connect the Green and Black wire
from the Solar Sync Sensor to the
“SEN” wiring terminals on the X-Core
controller, similar to picture on page 11.
It does not matter which wire connects
to which terminal. Turn the dial to the
“Solar Sync Settings” position. The
CONNECTING A HUNTER SOLAR SYNC ET SENSOR
display will initially show dashed lines and then will show the default
Region setting (3) on the le and the default Water Adjustment
setting (5) on the right. Adjust the Region as needed by using the
and buttons (refer to page 13 for explanation of Solar Sync
Region setting). Use the button to advance to the right to adjust
the Water Adjust setting as needed (see page 14 for explanation of
Water Adjust setting).
Installing the Wireless Solar Sync
Connect the Green and Black wire from the Wireless Solar Sync
Receiver to the “SEN” wiring terminals on the X-Core controller. It
does not matter which wire connects to which terminal. Turn the
dial to the “Solar Sync Settings” position. The display will initially
show dashed lines and then will show
the default Region setting (3) on the
le and the default Water Adjustment
setting (5) on the right. Adjust the
region as needed by using the
and buttons (refer to page 13 for
explanation of Solar Sync Region setting). Use the button to
advance to the right to adjust the Water Adjust setting as needed
(see page 14 for explanation of Water Adjust setting).
Solar Sync Settings
Once the Solar Sync sensor is connected to the X-Core controller,
two numbers will appear in the display when the dial is turned to the
Solar Sync Settings position. The number on the le of the screen is
the Region setting, and the number on the right on the screen is the
Water Adjustment setting (as shown above).
NOTE: The Solar Sync module is not required for
installation using the X-core Controller.
