The indoor controller is smaller and runs on an external transformer (included) that you would plug into a standard electrical outlet. This controller is the outdoor version of the X-Core controller; meaning that the transformer is internal (inside the gray panel at the bottom of the controller box), so as not to be exposed to weather. For safety the transformer must be hard wired to the power source; no plug-in. Additionally, this outdoor model, as you can view in the photo, has a locking cabinet to keep the controller protected from certain critters and weather. The indoor X-Core controller does not have a door or locking cabinet, as it is meant to be installed inside of a structure. I hope this is the information you were looking for! Please let us know if we can be of further service. **Q: My controller burns up when a bolt of lighting is very close, but no direct hit to house. plugged into gfi. why does this surge only effect my hunter** A: My Hunter controller was damaged by lightning recently (no sign of directly hit neither). First lightning damage in my lifetime. I bet this so-called outdoor device is not properly grounded. **Q: What's the difference between the xc600 and pcc600?** A: The XC model is waterproof and designed for exterior mounting. **Q: This controller wires to the breaker panel not a plug?** A: This unit does NOT wire to the breaker. Transformer type is 110V-120V plug via adapter. The unit is rated for outdoor use (weatherproof), but I have mine mounted to the wall in my garage. All Hunter units have removed the "Manual All Stations" setting and only have "Manual" Single Station runs (which sucks...) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Exceptional Quality *by R***T on May 29, 2026* This controller is easy to install and has all the features anyone could want.
