Brand: Hunter Industries SKU: X2-400
Product Overview
The Hunter X2-400 is a fixed four-station irrigation controller with a 120 VAC internal transformer, power cord, and plastic indoor/outdoor wall-mount enclosure. It is designed for residential and light-commercial sprinkler systems that need straightforward dial-and-button programming with the option to add online Hydrawise management later. The WAND Wi-Fi and Bluetooth module is sold separately.
In standalone mode, the X2 provides three independent programs, four start times per program, and station run times up to six hours. Cycle and Soak can divide long watering periods into shorter cycles, while Delay Between Stations supports slow-closing valves or water-supply recovery. Seasonal adjustment, programmable rain-off, Easy Retrieve memory, QuickCheck wiring diagnostics, and automatic short-circuit protection support routine system management.
Adding a compatible WAND module connects the controller to Hydrawise and expands supported online programming to six start times per program with run times up to 24 hours. Remote management, online weather adjustments, controller logs, and faulty-wiring alerts require WAND, a 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi connection, and a configured Hydrawise account.
