Installation Instructions

This package includes:

(1) ICD400 or ICD600 decoder module

(1) Instruction Sheet

Tools/supplies required* (not included):

 DBRY-6 high-voltage waterproof connectors or

equivalent

 DBY waterproof connectors or equivalent

 Wire strippers

 Optional earth grounding hardware

The ICD Series decoders may be connected to the Hunter ACC, AGC, Genesis, VSX, and IDS decoder controllers.

• In the ACC or AGC controllers, each decoder is programmed with station address(es) at the controller,

before installing it in the 2-wire path. These controllers have a programming port on the decoder output module.

Program the station number(s) into the decoder, and then write the station number assignments on the metallic tag

on the decoder. The 8-digit serial number is not used in the decoder set-up on these controllers.

• ICD Decoders may also be programmed with the Hunter Industries Model ICD-HP handheld programmer,

after installation.

1. In the ACC/AGC series of controllers, first Insert the red and blue wires from the decoder into the Programming Ports on

the decoder output module (ADM99).

2. Use the procedure in the ACC / AGC owner’s manual for addressing decoders. Use a ballpoint pen to write the station

number(s) on the decoder’s metallic tag.

Each decoder output can power two standard 24VAC Hunter solenoids. They must be wired in parallel, as shown in step 9.

• In Genesis, VSX, and IDS controllers, the decoder can be installed on the 2-wire path before giving it a station

address using the 7-digit serial number followed by “x”. The 8-digit serial number is required

for station addressing

• • on the Genesis, VSX and IDS controllers. “x” at the end of a serial number is replaced with 1, 2, 3, or 4 in the controller station programming to indicate which colored pair matches the station number (see chart). Note and record the 8-digit serial number on the decoder body, and then use the controller keypad to indicate which station number(s) will be assigned to the decoder (see controller manual). 2. 3.

output wire should make a three-way connection, with one wire from each of the two solenoids. Decoder outputs never use a “common” wire. 10. If the decoder is to be ungrounded, fold the bare copper wire th out of the way. If the decoder is to be grounded (every 12 decoder or 1000 ft/330m, whichever is first, including last decoder in the wire path), connect the bare copper 12AWG/2mm dia.
