Hunter BOC-200 — Two Wireless Stations in One Valve Box
The Hunter BOC-200 puts two independently scheduled stations on one IP68 SkyCommand node. Use it when two valves share a box and you do not want a second BOC-100. Same LoRa radio, D-cell or solar power, SC-PROBE moisture loop, and Centralus programming as the rest of the BOC line. A site can mix 1-, 2-, and 4-station BOCs up to 100 devices / 400 stations.

Frequently Asked Questions
When should I choose BOC-200 instead of two BOC-100 units?
Choose BOC-200 when two valves are in the same box or close enough to share one battery pack and one radio. Split to two BOC-100s if the valves are far apart or you want independent battery/solar maintenance.
Does each station on BOC-200 get its own Centralus program?
Yes. SkyCommand stations are programmed in Centralus. The BOC stores those programs locally so both stations keep running if the hub is offline.
Can I expand later from BOC-200 to more stations?
Add another BOC (BOC-100, BOC-200, or BOC-400) on the same UCH site. You do not replace the BOC-200; SkyCommand scales by adding devices, up to 100 per site.
Is BOC-200 compatible with Virtual Solar Sync?
Yes. SkyCommand uses Centralus Virtual Solar Sync climate adjustment across the site, including BOC-200 stations.
