CONNECTING A WEATHER SENSOR ...................................................................................

A Hunter Mini-Clik

®

rain sensor or other type of interrupt weather sensor

can be connected to the SRC. The purpose of this sensor is to stop

watering when precipitation is sufficient. The sensor connects directly

to the controller and allows you to easily override the sensor by using

the RUN (BYPASS SENSOR) position on the dial.
1. Route the wires from the rain sensor up through the same opening

used for valve wiring.

2. Connect one wire to the RS terminal and the other to the C terminal.
3. Connect the valve common from the field to the RS terminal.

Note: If a pump relay is being used, the pump relay common must

also be connected to the RS terminal.

A weather sensor shuts off your system during rainy

weather – saving water. Ask your installer for more

information on this device.
