Hydrawise X2 8-Station Outdoor Irrigation Controller

The X2 controller from Hunter Industries, a highly reliable and efficient device, brings irrigation management into the next generation by building on the legacy of its predecessor, the popular X-Core. The X2 offers the option to add Wi-Fi capabilities, enabling total remote management and advanced water-saving features through Hunter's industry-leading Hydrawise smart irrigation technology.

With the X2, users can maintain the familiar dial-based programming style offered by the X-Core. If users choose to upgrade their X2 to Wi-Fi control with a simple, plug-in WAND module, the programming process becomes familiar, fast, and easy, thanks to a helpful setup wizard using a smartphone or desktop device.

Hydrawise technology maximizes water savings by automatically adjusting irrigation schedules based on local weather conditions. The X2 ensures healthy, green landscapes, making site management more convenient and profitable in routine installations. Users can quickly set irrigation schedules and manage an unlimited number of controllers with real-time controller status updates.

The Wi-Fi-capable X2 controller features an easy-to-read backlit display that provides optimal visibility in any light. It offers 3 flexible programs with 4 start times each and run times up to 6 hours. The built-in QuickCheck technology provides simple diagnostics of faulty field wiring, while the Hide Programs option shows 1 program and 1 start time for ease of use.

The X2 controller also allows users to easily suspend irrigation for up to 99 days during the off-season. Its short-circuit protection detects wiring faults and skips the station without damaging the system. Additionally, the Easy Retrieve memory automatically backs up the full irrigation schedule in the event of a power outage, and the Delay Between Stations feature accommodates slow-closing valves or pump recharge.

The Cycle and Soak function prevents wasteful runoff in areas with elevation changes or compact soils, ensuring efficient water usage and maintaining healthy, vibrant landscapes. Overall, the X2 controller from Hunter Industries is a powerful and versatile irrigation management solution that combines advanced features, water-saving capabilities, and user-friendly programming, making it an ideal choice for both residential and commercial applications.
