This has just changed the game wow

So all My 2000 Remote ports will not work ? - sometimes Internet could be down or not working and the remote Port would be a better option - Will this Still allow remote Port to work ROAM ?

[@ramblinman7153]

Do I need to re-program my watering schedule/times?

[@nateanth]

What if my Pro C ribbon cable only has 1 row of pins (pre 2014), how can I upgrade to get Wifi capability?

[@jawsmod]

It wont work. I just ran into this problem.

where can i buy this HPC retro-fit panel for Pro-C controller

[@russellscofield25]

I have an older Pro-c (2012). Can it be upgraded or replaced by a unit compatable with HW and Wi-Fi? I wrote to Hunter Industries but got no response.

[@Hunter_Industries]

Thank you for contacting Hunter Technical Support.
The newer style Pro-C controller panels can be upgraded to Hydrawise Wi-Fi units without replacing the entire controller. As long as your Pro-C controller has blue buttons you can replace the front panel to make it a Hydrawise controller.

@@Hunter_Industries I have Hunter Pro C and want to see if it is compatible and where do I see the prices? Thank you.

[@kevinmcgo]

My control panel is mounted outside, would I be able to use this panel?

[@Hunter_Industries]

If your Pro-C has green buttons you can not use this replacement part. You will need a whole new controller. The HPC-400 would be the replacement controller. If your Pro-C has blue buttons you can get the HPC-FP to swap facepacks.

What is the difference between an HPC controller and an HCC controller?

[@Hunter_Industries]

The biggest difference is station count. The HPC controller is can operate 23 conventional zones. The HCC targets commercial projects and can operate up to 54 zones.

[@stownley2005]

Now do it again but with a Hunter Pro C 300 Original and then I'd be impressed.

[@Hunter_Industries]

Glad it helped

No, seriously, come out with a universal unit for the “forgotten about generation.” I wasn’t being facetious when I said I would be impressed.

[@b01brdcst]

No instructions on new controllers. I'm a contractor and I don't know how to set up rain sensor. I don't know how to run test without having to comeback to the controller 16 times. Make an instructional video this is or this a step back not forward. Not all locations want to conect to internet.

Again there is no Ethernet Connector...

[@ws.waustin5430]

Major disappointment not building in the ability to use the remote port. Garbage coding on hunter's part. The port is already there. Why would I want to get my phone wet and muddy in the field when I can use my roam Xl, not to mention response time. Absolute garbage sometimes on the response time. On multiple sites, not blaming the wifi or customers connection. Perfect for the homeowner not the irrigator. Also the Hydra wise flow meter is garbage compared to the hunter flow sync.
