Lawn Irrigation – Connect 4 Rain Bird Valves to Hunter X-Core Computer
I am still in the process of converting my existing Hunter lawn irrigation system. From the current 3 sprinkler circuits with 4 sprinklers each, I will build 6 circuits. I will then install 3 sprinklers per circle. For the blasters, I have so far relied on models from Hunter. My 1st valve box is also a Hunter product. Now the 2nd box is to be installed. Here, however, I rely on solenoid valves from Rain Bird. Rain Bird, like Hunter, is one of the top dogs in the irrigation equipment market. Price-wise, the valve box was even a little more interesting than Hunter’s box.

However, I only briefly touched on the programming of the Hunter X-Core. In this article I will write in detail how I programmed my Hunter X-Core irrigation computer.
