help Hunter X-Wave Controller FAQ

Is Hunter X-Wave an official Hunter controller model?

I could not match the name X-Wave to Hunter's current official controller list, which includes lines such as X-Core and X2. Confirm the model number on the controller before ordering valves, wiring, or replacement modules. [Hunter controller range](https://www.hunterirrigation.com/irrigation-product/controllers/x-corer)

How many irrigation zones does the Hunter X-Wave control?

The supplied listing does not give a station count. For comparison, Hunter's current X2 range is offered in 4, 6, 8, and 14-station versions, while X-Core supports up to 8 stations.

Does this Hunter controller support Wi-Fi?

Do not assume that it does from the word smart in a listing. Hunter's X2 requires the separate WAND module for Wi-Fi and Hydrawise control, while the standard X-Core controller is not Wi-Fi enabled by itself.

What should I check before replacing this irrigation controller?

Verify the exact model, number of stations, transformer voltage, valve wiring, and whether a Wi-Fi module is included. Hunter's current X2 system supports 3 programs and up to 4 start times, but those specifications should not be applied to an unidentified X-Wave unit.
