Hunter Quick Check
™
This circuit diagnostic procedure can quickly identify “shorts”
commonly caused by faulty solenoids or when a bare common
wire touches a bare station control wire.
To initiate the Hunter Quick Check test procedure:
1. Press the +, -, ← and→ buttons simultaneously. In the
standby mode, the LCD will display all segments (helpful
when troubleshooting display problems).
2. Press the + button to begin the Quick Check test procedure.
The system will search all stations to detect a high current
path through the station terminals. When a field wiring short is
detected, an ERR symbol preceded by the station number will
momentarily flash on the controller LCD display. After the Hunter
Quick Check completes running this circuit diagnostic procedure,
the controller returns to the automatic watering mode.
Clearing Controller’s Memory/Resetting Controller
If you feel that you have misprogrammed the controller, there
is a process that will reset the memory to factory defaults and
erase all programs and data that have been entered into the
controller. Press and hold the PRG button. Press and release
the RESET button on the back of the front panel. Wait until the
display shows 12:00 am. Release the PRG button. The controller
is now ready to be reprogrammed.
WINTERIZING YOUR SYSTEM
In regions where the frost level falls below the depth of the
installed piping, it is common for systems to be “winterized.”
Several methods can be used to drain the water from the system.
If compressed air method is used, we recommend that a qualified
licensed contractor perform this type of winterization.
NOTE: WARNING! WEAR ANSI APPROVED
SAFETY EYE PROTECTION! Extreme care
must always be taken when blowing out the
system with compressed air. Compressed air
can cause serious injury, including serious
eye injury from ying debris. Always wear
ANSI approved safety eye protection and do
not stand over any irrigation components
(pipes, sprinklers, and valves) during blow
out. SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY MAY
RESULT IF YOU DO NOT PROCEED AS
RECOMMENDED.
NOTE: Any programs that have been
saved with Easy Retrieve will remain after
resetting controller.
