Setting up a Controller in Offline
Mode
Offline programming will allow your controller to run without any internet access like a
traditional irrigation controller. You have two options to program your controller if you
currently do not have WiFi access.
1. Using the App to Program controller with no WiFi
2. Offline programming at the controller
Using App to Program controller with no Wifi (e.g; new construction)
In some cases, it may not be convenient to program the controller using the offline mode
feature (programming using controller screen). The following steps must be taken if
programming the controller through the app with a hotspot.
1. Create Hotspot with Smartphone: Depending on your smartphone, please use either
guide below:
Apple hotspot [4]
Android hotspot [5]
2. Once you activate your hotspot, connect the controller to verify the Wi-Fi on the
controller is working properly.
3. Disable WIFI completely. Settings > Offline Settings > Disable Wifi
4. Remove hotspot and programming will remain in the controller.
Programming at Controller
Hydrawise has two different modes that will run in offline mode at the controller.
Copyright 2020 Hunter Industries. All Rights Reserved. 9

Modes Controller Models
Standard Mode HPC, HCC, PRO-HC, and X2
Advanced Mode HPC, HCC, PRO-HC, and HC
Standard offline programming will allow the controller to run like our traditional controllers
the X-core and the Pro-C models. Each of the six programs (a-f) allows you to start each
program up to four times a day, set run lengths and set specific days to water.
Advanced offline programming will allow the controller to run independently for each
zone(station). Each zone (station) can have up to four start times with their individual run
times.
To set your controller in Offline Mode for manual configuration, please follow the steps
below:
1. From the main menu, tap on SETTING.
2. Select CONFIG.
3. Select FACTORY DEFAULT.
4. Next , press ERASE CONFIG. This will reset the controller back to factory
settings. You will be presented with a warning dialogue.
5. Select CONFIGURE OFFLINE and follow the wizard steps.
This wizard will guide you through the steps to set up your controller to run in offline mode
without an internet connection.
If you choose to switch modes when using the compatible model, use the steps below:
1. From the main menu, tap on SETTINGS.
2. Select OFFLINE PROGRAMS AND SETTINGS.
3. Select OFFLINE MODE.
4. Choose mode and select CONFIRM.
If you decide to connect the controller via internet at a later date, the online programming
will sync with controller within a few seconds and override the offline programming.
