The Rain8WL is a 8 to 256 zone modular sprinkler controller that can be directly controlled by X10 wireless remotes like the Palmpad (HR12A) or from any computer with an X10 wireless adapter ("Firecracker" CM17A).

Standard 24VAC irrigation valves are wired in a conventional manner to the controller module's terminal strip.

A complete irrigation schedule can be triggered by the reception of a single wireless command (Auto Mode).

OR

For greater control, each individual zone can be controlled independently (Manual Mode).

The Rain8wl requires a RF signal generated by an X10 device. This includes keychain remotes, Palmpad remotes or even the Hawkeye motion sensor (makes a great deterrent to trespassers). Nothing else is required. Pushing a single key can start a complete irrigation program or if you prefer keys can be assigned to single on-off control of individual zones. It is possible to combine these features and have the best of both worlds.

Computer based control is also possible and without the need of running wires between the Rain8 location and your computer. An X10 wireless adapter is connected to an available serial port on the PC and becomes the necessary link. You have a choice of using our stand alone software or other home automation software packages.

Additional "slave" modules may be daisy chained to provide control and 24 VAC power to as many as 32 modules or 256 irrigation zones.

Includes power supply and cables.
