Overview of Hunter X2 WI-FI Irrigation Controller with WAND WiFi Module | SprinklerSupplyStore.com 

Wow, really. Click the hamburger menu on the top left, and then Zones and Programs, then Programs. From there, you should see everything. If not, you may need to contact Hunter for support.

Hi Matt. Controllers require an external rain sensor. I recommend using a wireless option to place it in an optimal location. Here is a link, this rain sensor has the 'Direct Response' feature, which will shut down the controller immediately rather than wait for a specific amount of rain to accumulate: sprinklersupplystore.com/products/hunter-wrclik-wireless-rain-sensor

Yes! This is a great question. Your programming will move to the cloud. Then you’ll always have a back up, so if something happens to the controller, and you replace it with a new one, you’ll still have the programming as well.

@@Andy_Humphrey thank you. I finally decided to use the Wand with my X2 and I’m just learning how to program it. Your video helped tremendously. Would hate to lose the set up as it is perfect.

Awesome. Have fun with it!

Yes, absolutely, you can operate the controller at the interface anytime, even with the WAND setup.

@@Andy_Humphrey do you know if we unplug the WAND, will it go back to how it was and kept the setup?

What happens when you press the PRG button in the center of the arrow buttons? This should switch between programs. Contact us if you need assistance.

Hi @searchmasterjohn (great name). Only the Pro-C with Blue Buttons is upgradeable. The HPC-FP is the face panel upgrade for the Pro-C but it only works with Blue Button models. Alternatively, replacing the entire controller is often not too difficult, we'd be happy to offer remote assistance. Reach out to our customer service anytime.

Yes, just remember configure (assign) the Pump Start to all programs. Here is a screen capture: www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/43zh11j0eomxgk6snscoq/Hunter-X2-Pump-Start.png?rlkey=pidn0jjv03j7ucacfsqpdal1l&dl=0

Aw shucks! Did you resolve this?

The Hunter Roam Remote will allow to to manually operate a Hunter controller up to 1,000ft away. With Wi-Fi the distance is unlimited. Roam Remote Here: sprinklersupplystore.com/products/hunter-roam-remote-control-kit

It’s needs standard 120v AC power. There is a transformer that reduces the power to 24v. The battery is not used to operate the system.

Thanks, Michael. What product/question should we do next? -Andy

Hi Rob. If you are replacing the entire controller with a new Wi-Fi controller, yes, it will need to be reprogrammed. If you are connecting an existing controller to the internet (via Wi-Fi), all the programming *should carry over. Technology is great when it works, and sometimes there are glitches/bugs that create strange behavior which can delete data. But you should be fine!

@@Andy_Humphrey yes I have an existing X2 and just looking to add wifi. Thank you for the reply. Rob

Hi Oren Flotech. It is not possible to operate this controller on 12VDC. Alternatively, Hunter has model XC-HYRBID that is designed to operate on either 24VAC or 12VDC. Remember to change your solenoids to DC latching solenoids if you should to go with the DC option.

​@@Andy_Humphrey Hi, I am looking for a controller to be powered with 12v DC and to be charged constantly by solar panel. Thank you!

Yeah, it’s just a quick overview. I’ll keep that in mind for a future video, thanks!

I never managed to connect my x2 at my grandparents house to WiFi, I feel like the process shouldn’t be this hard

Chinese is better suited for Google. Ask Google to translate this for you ;)

There are certainly more advanced controllers available

This is my controller! Thanks for demonstrating on this unit!
