How to reprogram your Hunter sprinkler controller - Homeowner

[@DrEjSit]

This guy is the best I’ve heard yet! He speaks clearly and explains well . I need to play it several times and walk through with my controller. I don’t understand why the Hunter manufacturer can’t hire his expertise to produce their videos ?!

[@chrisroberts0303]

The one video I have to watch every spring.

[@Notyourname_]

Finally someone who explains everything clearly. Thank you sir.

[@sumita50]

Most comprehensive and clearest of all the Hunter irrigation videos I have watched.

[@nealdz1031]

I was getting so confused with mine. First time retic user. This vid cleared up ALOT of confusion for me around program run and start time

[@esojanacig5138]

I have to learn from you just to help my neighbor with the same control. I don't even have a sprinkler of my own. Thank you so much, great instructions! 👍 👍

[@EnergyMedicineAlice]

this is the best tutorial I've found so far. The only area I want him to add is how to program a, b, c for each zone. I have 6 zone but he is showing 4.

[@scottschwen7558]

Thank you so much ! Fantastic tutorial video in a slow paced, easy to understand format ! You are awesome 👍👍👍 ! I've been getting out of bed at 4:45am just trying to figure things out - 😂😂😂 . Thanks for putting an end to that foolishness ! Brilliant video ! ✅👍✅👍✅

[@lessthanfive174]

Excellent tutorial. I couldn’t figure out why my system ran for so long. The best tutorial on you tube!

[@soniag4516]

The best tutorial on Hunter I've finally found thanking God and sending blessings-Shalom to you sir. I've been suffering for months trying to program my system.

[@leerandallandrews]

Very informative and concise video. Thanks a bunch, dude. You just saved my lawn!

[@user-vn3oy9zb7j]

Holy crap.... I've been watching the factory video for two or three times and just one viewing through yours made it understandable. My system had 5 different start times for A, B, and C. All I really needed was "A" with a run time of 0200. Now I'm not going to be dodging the putrid sulfur water that my well is pumping out five times every other day. Don't know where you are located but if you get near Florida, you got a pizza coming to you. Many thanks!

[@heatherlake9651]

Best Hunter X2 video ever! Thank you so much:) Otherwise, 7 people tried with manufacturer instructions and could not get this working until your video.

[@Kenjiro5775]

I have one of these systems in a house we just purchased. Thank you for providing the most comprehensive video on this topic I have seen. I know exactly how to manage this system now. 😁👍

[@christiegerardo3463]

I’ve watched other video tutorials for hunter x2 and this is the best one! Thank you for making it so simple and easy to follow.

[@erwinhofer9632]

Hello, since you start programming with the "Run Time" first and only then with the "Start Time" has helped me a lot to understand this system. Thank‘s a lot!

[@GB-sd8th]

This is the best demo of using this type of sprinkler box. Thank you!

[@bobbieadcock7016]

Keeping my fingers crossed that my system will now work.. I had a - symbol on all of my rain drops and the number 18 at the top. Ive removed the - symbol and set the number from 18 to 1. Tomorrow at 6am i should have a watered lawn. Thank you for your video hun!

[@patricklundquist9869]

Thanks for this. My installer had set four start times so that we had water running down the street. He came out and tried to fix it but since he didn't understand the start time issue, the problem had persisted.

[@gwenkelley8648]

This is the best tutorial I've ever seen! I just programmed my controller, and everything works!! Thanks you!

[@joannac9194]

Thank you so much. You were excellent, very easy to understand. Today I messed up my controller, and you saved my day.

[@barbarad7193]

Agree totally with other comments. This is the best educational video for the Hunter sprinkler controller. Thanks so much!!

[@JohnKotch]

Thanks man, you saved me a lot of time and aggravation.

[@user-xu6se4cv2c]

Thank you! I’ve had three different landscapers and who set this up incorrectly including one time when they programmed it wrong and the sprinklers went off for over an hour each day for each station while we were out of town. You helped me program everything correctly in less than 30 minutes! 👏🏻☺️🙏🏻

[@dancerpilot91]

Thank you!!! The description of start time versus run time and the programs versus zones in the manual was not clear enough. Beautiful description at 7 minutes in. Thank you!!!

[@kteimprta]

I have this video saved and always reference it to make sure. Thank you for making this very well explained video!!

[@bensouthward4523]

Wow. Had to go through 3-4 videos before I found one that explains everything Great job Still a little confused on watering days though

[@AmishKapoor18]

Thank you so much! This helped a lot! Specially the start-time and run-time confusion, I think hunter should definitely change the names of program names!

[@kevind4061]

Thank you! This is what I have been looking for.

[@michaelb8957]

Thank you very much for a great easy to understand video of this system. I was having some difficulty and now it's set correctly and I fully understand how it works.

[@user-zf5im9cq1m]

This is better than the one from their corporate page. Thanks.

[@birdnerdME]

excellent video! i love how methodical and slowly you worked through each step.

[@bpjames23]

Thank you for this video!! 1st time having a sprinkler system and I see why my water bill has been so high. I had it set up for 4 cycles instead of 1, so my sprinklers were running from 8 hrs instead of 2 hrs and had no idea.

[@debbie6085]

Great video. Thank you for explaining the system so well. I understand how the system works now. Previously it was doing my head in.

[@ksergas5301]

Thank you so much for your very precise instructions. It is very easy to understand your instructions

[@y.r.6947]

Omg!!! You are an amazing instructor. All my problems are solved. Thank you!!!!

[@jgirldo2691]

Great tutorial for our Hunter X2. You made it so easy to figure this thing out! 👏

[@leejobes9520]

THANK YOU!! Best instructions EVER. Found a simple mistake but Jez; not easy to figure out until your video!

[@ronjacobs1991]

Thank you, way better than the manual!

[@JanieEspinoza]

Wow, great great tutorial!!!! Test function is a game changer!!

[@debbietrogstad3106]

It finally makes sense! I was thinking this was the stupidest system in the world. Thank you so much.

[@user-tg2fx6ey6d]

Thank you! You are an excellent instructor!

[@yasserhassan6647]

Job well done! You the only one explained verywell specily the calendar in water days part..... thx!

[@Sakiadventures]

I just moved to my new house I m struggling with this thing all the time it help me alot thank yoh

[@lepaul26]

Yeah, problem is that A1 has 2 different meanings, depending if you are in Start Times or Run Times ... 🙄

[@justlisten1]

The best video to date on Hunter how to program. Thanks!

[@NicolaandIanPearson]

Great explanation, Thanks, no waffle just facts

[@automotivetribune]

Excellent video to setup the controller. Greatly appreciated!

[@annettegonzales6566]

Great video, you make it easy to understand the process.

[@susanwilliams3598]

Thank you for such an informative video, helped wonderfully with our new system

[@royspencer808]

Love this video! It was super helpful. So clear and concise. Thank you!!!!

[@na93prepre]

Thank you. I couldn't figure out why my system was starting at 3am and continuing to run through 9am. I now suspect my water bill will be cut in half.

[@padinoel261]

Im not a computer programmer! Im so frustrated with this system. Wish they made one that would come up on my computer screen with photos of my yard. Touch screen. It should ask me, where, when , how long...and have a nice day! My life would be so much easier. 😢

[@irrigationtipstricks7797]

@@padinoel261 Rachio has a fantastic wifi controller. I highly recommend it for homeowners with less than 17 zones. Hunter also has a great range of wifi controllers however they can be difficult for homeowners to navigate - aimed at high-end users and professionals.

[@ba6ani]

Thank you so much, this is the best one!

[@rytoe]

Thank you for an extremely clear explanation!

[@kelseyshao8295]

I tried different videos to learn. Yours is the most accurate one.

[@soniag4516]

I agree.

[@MrAmazingA]

Super helpful. Thanks for the easy explanation.

[@BobbyeJones]

PLUS - BEST TUTORIAL EVER WATCHED!!!!

[@Ziggysixtytwo]

Thank you it is a very easy controller to use thanks for your tips👍👍

[@TheHandsOnGang561]

This was awesome! Great learning video, more should make videos like this. Thank you

[@robelrobel6189]

Very educational and informative thank you so much

[@ciro26]

Thank you a I thought the start time where for each cycle 😂. Thought I had a leak .

[@GodSonPJ]

Thank You! Great tutorial.

[@Sony_Hunt]

Very informative video, thanks a million!!

[@cesardesouza8193]

Thank u so much!!! Very well explained!!

[@kurtp5299]

Very good tutorial. The instructions that came with the controller are not clear at all regarding distinguishing between programs, cycles, and stations. My irrigation installer for my home system was using the term zone which complicated the issue. As a practicing landscape architect, my irrigation designer did not recommend Hunter products for this very reason.

[@rockl101]

Excellent excellent excellent!!!!

[@davechapman7735]

very well explained thank you

[@nickscholl3575]

Thank you! This helped us a ton!

[@robertwaddell3420]

[@aruti6664]

Thank you so much it helps a lot ❤

[@momymamapf]

Great video! Thanks so much! God bless :)

[@agathomassen8426]

It is a very good tutorial for people like me who do not have a clue about any of the electronics in the house! :D Thank you so much! I have a question: when I set watering days, do I set odd days or days of the week or both? Does one setting that I choose overrides the other? And what happens when I choose odd day and Wedsday as a watering day, and Wednesday happens to be an even day in the calendar? Will my garden be watered then? I hope that I am explaining this right :D

[@jeffhuxford2870]

SOOOOOO Helpful! Thank you

[@tuscanacrypto]

Great Vid! Great help! Thanks 😃

[@shibemate]

Nice video ! It solved my problém

[@hoanglong2179]

You are the best!

[@fitz9045]

Great video!

[@nthewind081]

Great job❤❤

[@davidlong2949]

multiple start times for each zone isn't needed; just one start time on the first zone. Otherwise runs multiple times- my problem solved. Other videos don't point this out. also one for drip explained well

[@jordan-rs7sk]

Thank you

[@crosspower3260]

great , this is what i needed :D

[@alvarofernandez3175]

[@dennissaputra7805]

I like it

[@BobbyeJones]

EXCELLENT

[@mandarin1234567891]

Very good information! I have a problem. The clock and date on my Hunter programmer resets every time there is a power outage. It is normal? Thank you

[@mpdeshowitz]

I have two stations. One is for drip (B2) and one for lawn (A1). During the heat of the summer I like to cycle the lawn twice separated by one hour but when I try to schedule A2? the drips lines go off. What am I doing wrong?

[@andyjw97006]

How can i just have it water the front yard and not the back yard. I have 2 zones. My backyard just turns to a swamp and it only runs for 10 minutes front and 10 minutes back.

[@ionvasilica4876]

❤

[@charliephung]

Hi i got safety switch on and off for my reticulation. Now i want install a hunter x2 wiffi control. Can you plz make video how to connect the wire between 2 of those. Thanks

[@drof2th]

Thank you!!! Since the X2 controller does not have a replaceable battery, do the time/date and run time settings come back if the battery is dead, when AC power is restored?

[@SFAAGroup]

my controller unit is 18 years old. and while the basics in this is good it fails to address resetting the old unit. Having tried unplugging and leaving it for a few minutes , when it is given power it does not reset to the date/time option. I have reached the end of ideas.. any suggestions?

[@irrigationtipstricks7797]

There should be a reset button on the controller that you hold down and then release. If that doesn't work contact customer support for the controller or call your local supply house.

[@annietavaroli3930]

I can water every other day on even days. I don’t understand how to set this

[@mervindio2253]

How to delete/remove the previous time. Because my hunter spray water 6am and 7:30 am. So i want to delete the 7:30am

[@movixii]

U said generally we should have run time on at 20 but how long should we have it during the 90 degree weather ? Im in florida btw

[@coreybillings592]

Should the system always be in bypass or should it be in the on position
