INTRODUCTION ..................................................................................................

The Hunter Smart Valve Controller (SVC) is the ideal choice for reliable operation in absence of standard electrical power. If

you’re not watering an area simply because of the inability of getting wires from the controller to the valves, Hunter’s SVC

battery operated, single-station controller is just the answer.

The Smart Valve Controller mounts directly to a valve quickly and easily –without screws, drills or wires. Its rugged design

and solid construction ensures that it can handle the harsh environment of the valve box. It is fully submersible and resists

moisture intrusion, mud and debris as deep as 12 feet. Operates off a single 9-volt battery that’s guaranteed to provide

power for at least a year. It’s also simple to program, with an easy to read and understand LCD display, along with push

button operation.

For isolated sites, power-restricted areas and special irrigation applications, the new Hunter Smart Valve Controller is your

solution.

LIT-354 SVC Owners Manual.RevA 1 3/21/02, 1:53:32 PM

CONNECTING THE BATTERY..........

The SVC uses a standard 9-volt alkaline battery (not

included) to operate the valve and program the controller.

The life of the battery is determined by the number of valve

actuations, however, under normal conditions the battery

should provide at least one full year of service.

NOTE: The SVC has non-volatile memory

which allows for the battery to be removed

without losing any program information.

To install the battery:

1. Unscrew the rear half of the SVC body to gain access to

the battery compartment.

2. Snap the battery into the battery holder.

NOTE: The battery holder is designed so that

the battery can only be inserted one way.

3. Make sure no water is inside the battery compartment.

Screw the SVC body halves together to seal the compart-

ment.

LIT-354 SVC Owners Manual.RevA 2 3/21/02, 1:53:32 PM

MOUNTING TO A HUNTER VALVE.

The SVC can easily be mounted on any Hunter plastic valve.

A specially designed valve mounting clip makes installation

a snap.

A protective rubber cover is provided to prevent dirt from

accumulating on the face of the SVC.

To mount the SVC to a valve (Figure 1):

1. Unscrew the existing solenoid from the valve.

2. Screw the SVC latching solenoid into the valve bonnet.

3. Attach the large end of the valve mounting clip to the

middle of the SVC body.

4. Snap the small end of the valve mounting clip to the

solenoid.

LIT-354 SVC Owners Manual.RevA 3 3/21/02, 1:53:32 PM

A universal mounting clip and mounting adapter are also

provided with the SVC. These allow for alternate methods of

mounting the controller either to the side of the valve box or

stake mounted within the valve box.

Valve Box Mounting Method (Figure 2)

1. Position the universal mounting adapter on the side of

the valve box. Make sure that the bracket is positioned

so that the controller will not interfere with the top of the

valve box cover.

2. Drive two screws to secure the adapter to the side of

the valve box.

3. Attach the SVC to the mounting clip and slide it on the

end of the mounting adapter.

ALTERNATE MOUNTING METHODS...............................................................

Stake Mounting Method (Figure 3)

The universal mounting adapter can also be used to stake

mount the SVC.

1. Cut a section of ½" diameter plastic pipe.

2. Drive the pipe into the ground inside the valve box to the

desired height of the controller.

3. Slip the mounting adapter on top of the pipe.

4. Attached the SVC to the mounting clip and slide onto the

adapter.

LIT-354 SVC Owners Manual.RevA 4 3/21/02, 1:53:33 PM

A Hunter Mini-Clik®rain sensor or other micro-switch type

weather sensor can be connected to the SVC. The purpose

of this sensor is to stop watering when weather conditions

dictate.

NOTE: When the Rain Sensor is interrupting

the watering,the display will show the

System Off icon , “OFF”and on

the display.

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

To connect a weather sensor to the SVC:

1. Cut the yellow wire loop attached to the SVC at approxi-

mately the middle of the loop.

2. Remove approximately ½" (13mm) of insulation from

each wire. Attach each wire to each of the wires of the

weather sensor.

3. Secure wire connections with waterproof connectors.

LIT-354 SVC Owners Manual.RevA 5 3/21/02, 1:53:33 PM

The SVC is easy to program. The easy-to-understand icons

and push button design allows you to step through the pro-

cess of programming and activate manual watering with the

press of a button.

The SVC display shows time and day when the button

is pressed. The button allows you to navigate among

programming options. During a short period of inactivity, the

display will shut off to retain battery power. When program-

ming, the flashing portion of the display can be changed by

pressing the or buttons. To change something that is

not flashing, press the or buttons until the desired

field is flashing.

The SVC allows for up to 9 start times. Multiple start times

permit morning, afternoon and evening watering, perfect for

the establishment of new lawns and thirsty annual flowers.

Simply designate the days of the week you want to water.
