The.Solar.Sync.is.a.sensor.system.that,.when.connected.to.a. compatible.Hunter.controller,.will.automatically.adjust.your. controller.watering.based.upon.changes.in.local.climate.conditions.. The.Solar.Sync.utilizes.a.solar.and.temperature.sensor.to.measure. on-site.weather.conditions.used.to.determine.evapotranspiration. (ET),.or.the.rate.at.which.plants.and.turf.use.water..In.addition,.Solar.
