Preparing for installation:
Determine where you will mount the valve
controller. The Valve Controller 2 was designed
to be wall-mounted, at an indoor or outdoor
location.
If installing your Valve Controller 2 and/or valve
device at an outdoor location, please first refer to
the environmental range specifications, found on
the Valve Controller 2 product support page of
our website. Also, while the Valve Controller 2,
the Bulldog Valve Controller and our motorized
valves are rated for outdoor use, to ensure years
of dependable operation, provide protection from
rain and direct sunlight with overhead cover, in
the form of an enclosure or rain hood.�
Do not install your valve controller or valve
device at a location where it will be submerged
in water.
Use of the 12VDC power supply/adapter is
optional. If you do not use the power
supply/adapter (or provide your own 12VDC
power supply), the valve controller must have
batteries installed. If you do connect a 12VDC
power supply to your valve controller, the use of
batteries is optional.
13
Install the Valve Controller 2,
Continued
I
With the use of optional extension cables, the
valve controller can be installed remotely from
the Bulldog or motorized valve. In some cases
this may allow placing the controller at a more
convenient or more accessible location (for
battery replacement, etc.). The location of the
valve controller must be within the limits of the
cables. If in doubt, connect all applicable cables
between the controller and the valve device and
the AC power outlet (if applicable) and choose
an appropriate location for the controller.
(Extension cables can be purchased on our
website.)
Determine how you will mount the valve
controller to the wall, and ensure you have the
appropriate mounting hardware (screws,
anchors, etc.) for the wall surface.
Install the Valve Controller 2:
1. Holding the valve controller at the desired
location, and using a marker or pencil, transfer
the valve controller’s top mounting hole location
to the wall surface.
2. If using wall anchors, install one at the top
mounting hole location, per the manufacturer’s
instructions (drill a pilot hole first, etc.)
14
3. Insert a screw in the top mounting hole
location, but do not screw it flush with the wall;
leave space on the end of the screw for the valve
controller.
4. Hang the valve controller on this screw, and it
should be level on the wall. Optionally, you can
verify the valve controller is level with a level tool
at this time. Using a marker or pencil, transfer
the valve controller’s two bottom mounting
holes to the wall surface.
5. If using wall anchors, install them at this time.
6. Insert screws in each of the two bottom
mounting hole locations.
7. Tighten all three screws, and confirm the valve
controller is secured to the wall surface.
To install a motorized valve, go to page 28. To

arrow of the other cable connector. Twist the
collar of the connector tight.
3. If using the 12VDC power input, via the
included plug-in power adapter or via your own
12VDC power supply, prior to plugging-in the
power supply/adapter or energizing the power
supply circuit, connect the valve controller’s
12VDC input cable to the power adapter or
12VDC power supply cable. Plug in the power
supply/adapter or energize the 12VDC power
supply circuit at this time. If you are electing to
power the valve controller only from the 12VDC
power input (not recommended), you can
remove the batteries at this time.
Final Connections
L
Use care to not connect a 2-pin connector to a
3-pin connector or vice versa. Never force two
connectors together – the connectors should
mate-up easily and not require force to tighten.
23
It is recommended to always use the app or the
valve controller SET button to operate the
Bulldog Valve Robot. If you need to manually
operate the Bulldog without using the app, you
can press the SET button on the valve controller.
If you need to operate the Bulldog Valve Robot
without using the valve controller, you can do so
by depressing the clutch pin as shown below.
While depressing this pin, the motor and gears
are disengaged from the ball valve, allowing it to
be manually operated.
If you are not using the valve status feature or if
your valve controller does not have the valve
status feature, to avoid the app from indicating
the wrong valve status, if you manually closed
the valve, for example, manually open it again.
Do not open it via the app, after manually closing
it and vice versa, otherwise the app will
incorrectly indicate the valve is closed.
Manual Operation

Testing
N
1. Test the Valve Controller 2 and Bulldog Valve
Robot by pressing the SET button on the
controller, and by watching the closing or
opening action of the Bulldog and the ball valve.
The valve should open and close completely
(verify no water is flowing through the valve
while closed). Also, listen for an even sound of
the motor operating. If the Bulldog sound
increases or appears to be straining, this may
indicate incorrect or suboptimal Bulldog
installation and/or a mechanical issue with the
ball valve (such as too stiff or too much
resistance to turning). Return to the installation
section, if needed.
2. Test the operation of the Valve Controller 2
from the app. From the Rooms or Favorite
screen, locate your Valve Controller 2, tap the
image, then tap Close to turn off the water, and
tap Open to turn it on.

Install the Motorized Valve
Q
Preparing for installation:
Determine the installed location of your new
motorized valve. Please consider these factors
when choosing the location for the motorized
valve:
This location must be within reach of the
cables of the Valve Controller 2 (see Install
the Valve Controller 2 section, on page 12.
Ensure that there is physical room for the
valve, that other pipes, a wall or other
objects will prevent installing it at the
desired location.
The manual control knob and Open/Shut
indicator window should be visible and
accessible.
Please note, the valve can be installed in
any orientation; sideways, inverted, etc.
Local plumbing or building codes may
require a non-electronic means of water
shut-off. If this is the case, or if in doubt on
the requirements, install the motorized valve
in line (before or after) the existing shut-off
valve (ball valve, etc.)
30
1. Shut-off the water serving the pipe where the
valve is to be installed. Drain the water from the
pipe, by turning on a faucet, or by other method
as required.
2. Depending on the adapter fitting used,
measure the length of pipe that must be cut, and
mark the cut lines on the pipe, as shown below.

Control-D2D Device-to-Device
Pairing
V
YoLink Control-D2D is our unique
device-to-device control technology. Using
Control-D2D, compatible YoLink devices can
control or be controlled by other YoLink devices,
without a hub or internet connection. One device
can control another device, directly.
A device that controls or sends out commands is
called the controller. A device that is controlled
or receives the commands is called the
responder. An example of a controller are a
Water Leak Sensor, while examples of a
responder are a Siren Alarm or a Valve Controller
2.
Use of YoLink Control-D2D is optional.
One device can be Control-D2D-paired to up to
128 other devices.
Pairing is separate from the app and any
automation, scenes or alarm strategies you may
have configured in the app. Use care to not
create automations that conflict with
Control-D2D-pairing and vice-versa.
During pairing, the controlled device must be in
the state (open, on, unlocked, etc.) that it should
transfer to when signalled by the controller.
39
Pairing
1. To configure a Water Leak Sensor 1 as a con-
troller, press and hold the leak sensor’s SET
button for 5-10 seconds, until the LED quickly
blinks green, then release the button.
2. To configure the Valve Controller 2 as a
responder, first ensure that the valve or Bulldog
is in the closed position. Press and hold the
controller’s SET button for 5-10 seconds until
the LED quickly blinks green, then release the
button.
Upon pairing, the LED will stop blinking. This
may happen after only blinking two or three
times.
