A2C-LEDKT INSTALLATION GUIDE
The A2C-LEDKT is an external status light known as an SOS (Status
Output Station) light that is designed for Hunter ACC2 controllers.
This guide provides installation instructions for the alarm and status
light kit for Hunter ACC2 controllers. In wall-mounted controllers,
the light is attached through one of the bottom conduit holes.
In pedestal or custom-mounted applications, the electrical installation
is identical, but mounting needs may vary.

Connect Module to Power Terminal
Connect the yellow wire from the module to the yellow 24 VAC terminal on
the power supply board.
Connect the blue wire from the module to the designated “SOS” output.
• In most cases, this will be an unused P/MV output terminal.
• In this example, we will use P/MV3.
• In a conventional controller, it can also be any unused station output
(such as station #54).

Set Up Conditional Response in Advanced Features
Use the dial to navigate to the Advanced Features menu. Select Conditional
Response.
A controller may have up to 35 Conditional Response statements. If the rst
statement is already in use, navigate to the next unused statement to set up
the response.
Restore power to the controller, and proceed to set up in the controller
programming screens.
The designated SOS output must not be used for any other purpose, and no
other devices should be attached to it.
Note: Never attach the light kit to a decoder output. In decoder controllers,
only the P/MV terminals may be used to activate the light.

A2C-LEDKT INSTALLATION GUIDE
For “Type,” select the type of condition that will turn the SOS light red. Types
of conditions that can be used to activate the SOS light are:
• Clik or Solar Sync® sensors (active)
• Flow zone (ow alarm)
• MainSafe™ (ow alarm)
• Any alarm
• Critical alarms
Generally, the light kit is intended to be used with “Critical Alarm,” which is
any serious condition that will aect future irrigation.
Now click the so key for “Then” condition, and select "Start SOS Output" as
the Type.
Move to Selection, and select the output for the SOS light. This corresponds
with the terminal that the blue wire in the kit is attached to.

A2C-LEDKT INSTALLATION GUIDE
• This will designate the output as SOS only, and the P/MV or station
selected cannot be used for any other purpose, and cannot be placed in
irrigation programs.
• If a P/MV is already included in an irrigation program, it will not appear in
the selection list and cannot be selected.
• Decoder controllers must use P/MV outputs 1, 2, or 3.
Click the “Review Statement” so key. If the completed statement is the
response you want, click the Enable Statement button, and exit the screens.
The SOS light will now be enabled.
It is possible to have more than one statement activate the SOS output:
• One statement could active the SOS for Critical Alarms.
• Another statement could activate the SOS for an active sensor.
It is not possible to have more than one SOS output.
• If the SOS output station or P/MV is changed in one of the statement
screens, it will also change for all statements that call for an SOS
response.
Troubleshooting
If the light is red when there is no alarm, and green when there is an alarm,
or fails to light at all, check the wiring of the three connections on the light
xture.
