In the 5th part of my series "Building a lawn irrigation system with Hunter MP rotators", I show you how I connect the Hunter solenoid valve in my distribution box to the Hunter X-Core irrigation computer. I then program the control computer so that the new irrigation circuit is controlled automatically. The solenoid valve works with 24V and is connected via a cable with 2 wires. Each valve requires its own voltage cable, but all valves can use a common ground cable. The formula is: "number of valves + 1". ⚠️ Attention: When replicating, be sure to observe local regulations for installing electrical systems! This video is part of an extensive project in which I show all the steps - from planning to installing the pipes and lawn sprinklers to programming the irrigation system.
