Wired and Wireless Solar Sync Sensors

Evapotranspiration Sensor

for Compatible Hunter Controllers

The Solar Sync is a sensor system that, when connected to

a compatible Hunter controller, will automatically adjust

your controller watering based upon changes in local climate

conditions. The Solar Sync utilizes a solar and temperature

sensor to measure on-site weather conditions used to

determine evapotranspiration (ET), or the rate at which

plants and turf use water. In addition, the Solar Sync sensor

includes a Hunter Rain-Clik and Freeze-Clik sensor that

will shut down your irrigation system when it rains and/or

during freezing conditions.

Introduction

The result is a new water-ecient irrigation product that

promotes water conservation and healthier plants. You

simply program your controller like you normally would, and

the Solar Sync takes over from there, eliminating the need

to manually adjust your watering schedule.

The Solar Sync system is simply and easily installed on

any compatible Hunter irrigation controller (see controller

Owner’s Manual or application guide to verify compatibility).

The system consists of a sensor and receiver. The receiver

is only necessary when accompanied by a wireless sensor.

The sensor must be placed in an area where it can receive

full sun and rain exposure. The receiver is installed next to

or attached to your Hunter controller. The Solar Sync sensor

measures solar radiation and temperature and calculates

the daily evapotranspiration (ET) factor for irrigation. This

represents the amount of water lost by the plants due to

local climatic conditions, which needs to be replaced by

irrigation. The Solar Sync sensor also includes a Hunter

System Overview and Operation

Rain-Clik rain sensor that will automatically shut down

the irrigation system during rain events, thus preventing

unwanted irrigation when it is raining.

Enter a midsummer watering program in your controller

per the programming instructions in the Owner’s Manual

provided with your controller. The Solar Sync receives

data from the sensor and applies it daily to the controller’s

water schedule by adjusting the controller’s programmed

irrigation run times through the seasonal adjustment

feature in the controller.

Choosing the Sensor Location

Using the screws provided, mount the Solar Sync sensor on

any surface where it will be exposed to unobstructed sun

and rainfall, but not in the path of sprinkler spray.

The sensor gutter mount can also be used as an optional

mounting method. The gutter mount allows the sensor to be

mounted directly to the edge of a gutter.

Place Solar Sync sensor where it can receive

full sun.

System Components

Solar Sync System Components

The Rain-Clik will keep the irrigation from starting or

continuing during rainfall. No adjustment or calibration

is required for the Rain-Clik sensor. The Rain-Clik uses

patented Quick Response technology that will shut the

system o during the rst few minutes of rain. The only

adjustment that is necessary is the vent ring that will either

slow down or speed up the time at which the sensor dries

out and the system is turned back on. Opening the vent will

speed up the dry out time and closing the vents will slow

down the dry out time.

In addition, the Solar Sync’s built-in temperature sensor

provides system shutdown when freezing conditions occur.

At approximately 37°F (3°C) and below the Solar Sync

will command the controller to shut down. A "sensor o"

indication will be displayed on your controller when the

sensor is active. When thentemperature rises above 37°F

(3°C), automatic irrigation will be reactivated.

System Components

The Solar Sync receiver is designed to be mounted on

the wall next to the controller, or mounted in an available

knockout on the side of the controller.

System Components

The Wireless Solar Sync includes a downward-facing

antenna that communicates with the receiver.

System Installation

Installing the Sensor

The Solar Sync sensor can be mounted using the wall

bracket, or the gutter mount. Mounting the Solar Sync

using the wall bracket (A), use the screws provided to attach

the sensor.

Mounting the Solar Sync using the gutter mount (B), tighten

the locking screw over the edge of a rain gutter.

The sensor needs to be oriented upright (C) and the swivel

bracket can be moved for mounting on angled surfaces.

Loosen the locknut and screw to install at the desired angle

and then retighten.

Installing the Receiver

The Solar Sync receiver (A) can be installed either on the

wall using the mounting bracket (C) provided, or by using an

available knockout in the controller cabinet. Mount

the receiver to the wall using the screws provided near

your controller.

Mount the receiver on the side of your controller using the

extender (B) provided in any available knockout.

Bypassing the Sensor

If the Rain Sensor or Freeze Sensor is preventing system

operation, SENSOR OFF will be displayed on the controller’s

display. To disable the rain and freeze sensor, move

the RAIN SENSOR switch on the controller to BYPASS.

This allows you to operate your system during rain and

freeze conditions. The Solar Sync will continue to make

adjustments to your controller’s watering schedule. The

controller’s Rain Sensor switch should be in the ACTIVE

position for the Rain Sensor and Freeze Sensor to interrupt

watering during rainy and/or freezing conditions.

Maintaining the Sensor

The Solar Sync sensor is designed for outdoor use, but

must be kept clean to function correctly. Wiping the dome

covering the solar radiation sensor every 6 months is

recommended. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasives

on the dome.

The X-Core controller has Solar Sync control built in,

allowing the sensor be wired directly to the sensor

terminals inside the controller. Mount the sensor using

the included hardware.

X-Core with Wireless Solar Sync
