Rain Sensor
COnnECTInG A WEATHER sEnsOR
A Hunter weather sensor or other micro-switch type weather sensors
can be connected to the XC. The purpose of this sensor is to stop
automatic watering when weather conditions dictate.
1.
Remove the metal jumper plate
that is attached across the two
SEN terminals inside the controller.
2. Connect one wire to one SEN terminal and the other wire to the
other SEN terminal.
When the weather sensor has deactivated
automatic watering, the OFF and
icon
will appear on the display.

Testing the Weather Sensor
The XC provides simplified testing of a rain sensor when the sensor is
wired into the sensor circuit. You can manually test proper operation
of the rain sensor by running a
MANUAL ALL STATIONS
cycle or by
activating the system using the
One Touch
MANUAL START
(see page
10). During the Manual cycle, pressing the test button on the Mini-
Clik
®
will interrupt watering.
Manually Bypassing the Weather Sensor
If the rain sensor is interrupting irrigation you can
bypass it by using the bypass switch on the front of
the controller. Slide the switch to the
SENSOR BYPASS
position to disable the rain sensor from the system
to allow for controller operation. You can also bypass
the weather sensor for manual operation by using the
MANUAL – ONE STATION
function.
POWER FAILUREs
Due to the possibility of power failures, the controller has non-volatile
memory. Programmed information will never be lost due to a power
outage. The lithium battery will keep the correct time without AC
power. Normal watering will resume when AC power is restored.
