ConneCTIng ValVes
NOTE: The XCH operates DC latching solenoids
only (order Hunter P/N: 458200). 24 VAC solenoids
will NOT operate with the XCH. DC solenoids can
be easily identified by red and black leads. The red
lead is attached to the station output, while the
black lead is attached to the common wire.
1. Route valve wires between the control valve location and
controller.
2. At valves, attach a common wire to the black solenoid
wire on all valves. Attach a separate control wire to the
remaining red wire of each valve. All wire connections
should be done using waterproof connectors.
3. Route the valve wires through the conduit. Attach the
conduit through the bottom right side of the controller.
4. Secure the valve common wire to the C (Common) screw
on the terminal strip. Attach each of the individual valve
control wires to the appropriate station terminals and
tighten their screws.
