## Description

Searching for a hard working, entry-level residential controller. X-Core is on the case. Hunter's popular XC controller is now X-Core. Plug in the revolutionary Solar Sync ET sensor and the X-Core is converted into a Smart controller, using advanced water conservation technology and regulating irrigation runtimes based on locally measured weather.

Review: Nice Quality & Easy to Program - From all indications, this is a very well made controller. Installation was pretty much straight forward. No mounting template was included by Hunter so I created one by tracing the backside of the controller. The template greatly simplified pre-drilling the mounting holes and preinstalling the necessary anchors. I also temporarily removed the door to keep it from swinging shut during the installation. Setting the date and programming took a less than 5 minutes thanks to a very intuitive display and controls. I'm pleased. 2021 Update: After two years of use and the controller is still functioning perfectly and, perhaps of more interest, I've learned several tricks about programming. First: It pays to revisit the Owner's Manual after a season or two of use. When I became frustrated about not being able to manually start a full cycle of all stations without having to first temporarily change one of the program's start time, I found a thing called a "test program." With the dial in the RUN position, press and hold the PRG button. The station number will be displayed and the time will be flashing for two seconds. Use the plus or minus or buttons to set the run time from 1 to 15 minutes. The run time needs to be entered only once and after a slight, 2 second pause, the test program will start. Someone asked about setting up a dwell time between watering each station and from my experience the answer is both yes and no. The controller has a built in feature that allows setting the dwell time between stations of 0 seconds up to 4 hours. If one needed a longer dwell time (highly unlikely) then, from a technical point of view, the dwell time could be set much longer. Because the timer has three (3) program settings and each of the three has three (3) separate, available start times it would allow you to set nine (9) individual start and run times for up to nine (9) separate stations. Even if you’re skilled at programming the timer, this could take some time to get set up correctly. The good news is that the program can then be safely stored in non-volatile memory for future use. See page 26 of the users manual for using the built in program for setting the dwell time between stations. One Dwell setting applies to all stations. Once the Dwell time, the Start time and the Station times are set, then each station runs in sequence and the dwell time is added to the over all program run time. I've attached a copy of my cheat sheet that's served me well these past couple of years. My Dwell is currently set to zero. Hope this help with your decision on what to buy and/or how to use.
Review: Easy set up and operation. - Replaced an Irritrol Rain Dial that failed after a long and trouble-free life. This new Hunter unit has been in service for 6 months now and has proved to be as adequate replacement. Easy to install, set up and program and has proven to be reliable. Not surprisingly, there are programming differences from the previous unit but the user manual provides clear, concise instructions which helps with the "learning curve".

## Features

- Installation and maintenance are simple with Hunter remote capability, accessible through the optional Smart Port
- Control up to 8 stations with 3 programs and 4 start times each
- Hunter Quick Check helps troubleshoot field wiring issues

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How many modules does this unit come with?**
A: The one from Used Books By Mary have 4 Two Station Modules. Thank you!

**Q: When I set the timer for 4 stations, do I set start time for only station #1 and based on the run time the next 3 will come on?**
A: Yes - each start time you set will run through every stations programmed. Most applications only need one start time.

**Q: Is this hunter controller hard to install**
A: XC 800 is one of the easier ones to install and operator friendly. We are going to replace the rest of our controllers with this one because of ease of operations.

**Q: We have an xcore installed; it seems to water just 4 areas. how can we determine if it (the xcore) is a 4, 6 or 8 unit?**
A: There will be a sticker with the model number on the inside wall or the wiring compartment.
Also, the zone terminals will be numbered, you'll have either 4, 6 or 8 zone terminals.
You have to slide down the wiring compartment to view either of these methods.
Thank you
