WAND - Installation Guide

The WAND Module allows your X2 Controller to connect to the internet via a Wi-Fi router. Once
connected, you can access and manage the controller with your smartphone, tablet, or computer. To connect the X2 controller to the Hydrawise app using the WAND device, you can follow the in-app step instructions. Review the chart below to verify compatibility between the WAND device and the X2 Controller.
