INTRODUCTION .......................................................................................................................
Finally, there’s an affordable, full-featured indoor/outdoor controller for commercial applications.
Hunter Industries is pleased to introduce the ICC – Institutional/Commercial Controller for commercial use. Designed with the needs of the customer
in mind, the ICC offers simplified dial programming and an impressive range of features typically found in controllers that cost twice as much.
The ICC is very much a professional grade product. The controller’s large cabinet provides ample room for wiring. And the ICC is filled with essential
features that landscapes demand like a rain sensor bypass circuit, primary and secondary power surge protection, seasonal adjustment/water
budgeting, simultaneous program operation, programmable pump/master valve circuit, programmable rain delay, cycle and soak, four independent
programs with four different day scheduling choices and eight start times each, plus much more.
The ICC is so easy to use that you’ll need this user guide very little after installation. If you do have a question about the controller, refer to this
booklet or to the abbreviated instructions inside the door.
You can be sure that you’ve chosen with confidence. The ICC is a controller that does the job efficiently and economically.

This section will give you a brief overview of some of the components
on the ICC. Each item will be discussed in further detail later, however
this section can be helpful in getting acquainted with the different
options available.
A – LCD Display
1. Program Selector – Identifies the program in use A, B, C, or D.
2. Station Number – Identifies currently selected station number.
3. Main Display – Indicates various times, values, and programmed
information.
4. Year – Arrow identifies current calendar year.
5. Month – Arrow identifies current calendar month.
6. Day – Arrow identifies current calendar day.
7. Running – Arrow indicates when watering is occurring.
8. Day of the Week – Arrow identifies days of the week to water. You

12. Start time – Identifies selected start time. (Only appears on LCD
main display when SET WATERING START TIMES is selected.)
B – Control Buttons and Switches
13. Button – Increases the selected flashing display.
14. Button – Decreases the selected flashing display.
15. Button – Advances the selected flashing display to the next
item. Also to start a manual cycle.
16. Button – Returns the selected flashing display to the previous
item.
17. Button – Selects programs A, B, C, and D. Also to start a test
program cycle.
18. Rain Sensor Switch – Allows user to bypass weather sensor if
one is installed.
19. and Buttons – Used to increase or decrease the seasonal
adjust option.
A key feature of the ICC is its clear, easy-to-use dial design that makes
programming a snap. All essential keypad functions are clearly marked
to eliminate the confusion that’s a characteristic of so many other
controllers.
C – Control Dial
Run – Normal dial position for all controller automatic and manual
operation.
Set Current Date/Time – Allows current date and clock time to
be set.
Set Watering Start Times – Allows 1 to 8 start times to be enabled in
each program.
Set Station Run Times – Allows user to set each station run time.
Set Days to Water – Allows user to select individual days to water or
to select an odd, even, or interval watering schedule.
Set Pump Operation – Allows user to turn off pump or master valve
for specific stations.
Manual – Single Station – Allows user to activate a one time
watering of a single station.
Manual – All Stations – Allows user to activate a one time watering
of all stations or a few selected stations in a selected program.
System Off – Allows user to discontinue all programs and stop all
watering until the dial is returned to the RUN position.

D – Wiring Cabinet
20. 9-Volt Battery – The alkaline battery keeps time during power
outages or if the transformer is disconnected. The user may also
program the controller without AC power.
21. Reset Button – This button will restart the computer in case of
power surge or display freezing. No programmed data will be
lost.
22. Power Module Area – Used to attach transformer, master valve,
and other systems from their source to the controller.
23. Transformer – A transformer is installed in the controller to route
AC power from the power cable to the terminal strip area and to
ground the controller.
24. Junction Box – This box contains a terminal strip for connecting
115 volt and 230 volt power connections.
25. Station Modules – There are 4 (plastic cabinet) or 6 (metal or
stainless steel cabinet) modular positions inside the controller.
With the addition of 4 or 8 station ICM modules, you have the
ability to run anywhere from 8 to 32 stations (plastic cabinet),
and 8 to 48 stations (metal and stainless steel cabinet).

MOUNTING THE CONTROLLER TO WALL ..........................................................................
Wall Mount for Plastic, Metal or Stainless Steel Cabinet
All necessary hardware is included for most installations.
1. Select a location as close as possible to a standard electrical outlet
that is not controlled by a light switch.
2. Using the enclosed mounting template, mark the hole locations on
the wall. It should be in an easily accessible location at eye level
if possible.
3. Drill a 3/8" (10 mm) hole at each mark.
4. Install screw anchors into holes if attaching controller to drywall,
masonry, or plaster walls.
5. Remove the door and front panel from the controller. The front door
can be removed by pulling out the hinge pin.
6. Remove the protective plastic covering from around the appropriate
mounting bosses on the back of the controller cabinet by pushing a
screwdriver through them.
7. Holding the controller cabinet, line up the holes in the cabinet with
the wall anchors or pilot holes.
8. Drive a screw through each hole and secure snugly but do not
over tighten.

PEDESTAL MOUNTING THE CONTROLLER .......................................................................
Pedestal Mount, Metal or Stainless Steel Cabinet
1. Assemble the mounting template using the instructions provided
with the pedestal.
2. Using the enclosed mounting template, locate the bolts two inches
deep in the concrete pad, in the locations indicated. The pad can be
any size but at least a two-foot square is recommended.
3. Level the mounting bolts before the concrete sets.
4. After the concrete sets, remove the door of the pedestal and slide
the pedestal down onto the four bolts. Secure the pedestal to the
bolts using the enclosed washers and nuts.
5. Remove the door and faceplate of the ICC and attach the metal
cabinet of the ICC to the top of the pedestal using the enclosed
hardware in the pedestal.
6. Replace the pedestal door first and then replace the faceplate and
the cabinet door. The pedestal door cannot be removed or replaced
when the cabinet door is closed.

CONNECTING VALVES ............................................................................................................
1. Route valve wires between control valve location and controller.
2. At valves, attach a common wire to either solenoid wire of all
valves. This is most commonly a white colored wire. Attach a
separate control wire to the remaining wire of each valve. All wire
splice connections should be done using waterproof connectors.
3. Open hinged faceplate on the controller to access the terminal
strip area.
4. Route valve wires through the conduit and attach conduit to the
controller at the large conduit opening on the right side of the
bottom of the cabinet. The conduit opening has a triple knockout to
accommodate 1", 1 1/4" or 1 1/2" (25, 32 or 40 mm) conduit. Each
section can be easily removed using a knife. Refer to the conduit
sizing chart on page 31 in the Frequently Asked Questions section if
you are not sure what size conduit will work for your installation.
5. Strip 1/2" (13 mm) of insulation from ends of all wires. Secure valve
common wire to C (Common) terminal on any of the valve modules
or power module. Then attach all individual valve control wires to
appropriate station terminals.

Valve 2
Valve 3
NOTE: Although it is usually best to connect all field
wires prior to powering up the controller, it is not
necessary with the ICC. After powering up the
controller, attach the common wire to the terminal
strip as described above. Then touch each wire to
the terminal marked TEST to identify the valve
location. Each valve will open electrically when the
wire is touched to the TEST terminal. After
identifying the valve location, you may then insert
the wire into the appropriate terminal. This feature
allows you to sequence the valves in the most
logical order for the user without damaging the
controller by “sparking” the wires.
