INSTALLATION
Installing the HC Controller
The HC is designed for indoor installations only. The chosen location must have Wi-Fi
coverage. Wi-Fi coverage can be easily tested using a smart phone. A signal strength of
2 or 3 bars is recommended. Wi-Fi connectivity can also be tested on the HC itself (signal
strength is shown when you select a wireless network).
Cable Entry
The controller has two cable entry
options – from the rear of the case
or via a conduit from the bottom of
the controller.
Entry from the rear of the controller
Using a sharp knife, remove the two
cutouts on the rear of the controller
as indicated on the diagram as .
Entry via ⁄ inch conduit
Using a sharp knife, cut around the
semi-circular line on the controller as
indicated on the diagrams as . Cut
around the matching line on the blue
controller wiring cover.
Note: The HC Controller is an
indoor model and is not water-
proof or weather resistant, and
must be installed indoors or in a
protected area.
Note: Do not plug the
transformer into power source
until controller is mounted and
all wiring has been connected.

CONNECTING TO A WI-FI NETWORK
When your controller is rst powered on it will run a short wizard to connect your
controller to your wireless router.
If you’re not using the initial startup wizard then go to the Viewing Wireless Settings
section to change your wireless settings at hunter.direct/hchelp.
Using the Wizard

and press the Conrm button on screen.
2. Enter your wireless password and press the OK button on keyboard.
When connecting to your wireless network, the Wi-Fi Icon at the bottom right of the

CONNECTING TRANSFORMER & SOLENOID VALVES
Your controller has either 6 or 12 zones depending on the model you have purchased.
There are three COMMON wiring points for convenience – any or all of them can be used.
Refer to the diagram below when connecting your solenoid valves to the controller.
Water main
Master valve (optional)
Solenoid valves
Water to zones
Common wires
24V AC plug pack
Connecting the Transformer
Step 1 Step 2
Use the transformer supplied and connect
the wires to the red AC terminal blocks
on the unit marked as 24V. Polarity of the
wiring is not important.
Turn the power on. The power indicator
will light up (see previous page).

Step 4 Step 5 Step 6
Connect each of the
other solenoid wires to
one of the ZONE inputs.
If a master valve (sometimes
labeled as MV on other
controllers) is installed, it can
be connected to any spare
zone as any of the zones can
be assigned as a master valve
output. Conguration of the
master valve in the Hydrawise
app is required.
Click the blue wiring
cover into place to
seal the controller and
protect the wiring.
Solenoid Valve Wiring
Step 1 Step 2 Step 3
Take one wire from each
solenoid, twist together
and connect to the common
(usually white) wire of your
multicore irrigation cable.
Note: All wire connections
should be done using
waterproof connectors.
Connect each of the
other individual wires to
a dierent colored wire.
Record zones against wire
color for later reference.
Connect the common
wire from the multicore
cable (usually white) to
any of the three terminals
on the controller marked
COMMON.
