Who This Is For

  • You are integrating automated ventilation because you are tired of manual curtain adjustments when wind gusts rise
  • You are adding external weather tracking because you need your climate controller to pivot before indoor shifts occur

What We Found

  • We recommend this for growers who already run the GCS-1 because it adds a layer of intelligence to your air intake
  • The RS485 communication is consistent and we see far less signal noise with this than with analog sensors

What Users Say

  • Greenhouse managers say they stopped losing crop progress to sudden temperature drops after installing this sensor
  • Operations staff report that integrating this data into their controller cut down on their daily manual site checks

TrolMaster Green-X MBS-WS Outdoor Weather Station Sensor

Maintaining a stable environment inside your greenhouse is nearly impossible if you aren't monitoring the conditions outside. Fluctuations in wind speed, sudden rainfall, or temperature drops can quickly compromise your climate strategy. The TrolMaster Green-X MBS-WS acts as your eyes and ears outdoors, providing the critical data needed to stay ahead of the weather.

By integrating seamlessly with the TrolMaster Green-X GCS-1 Greenhouse Control, this compact sensor station enables proactive automation. Instead of reacting to internal shifts after they happen, your system can adjust curtains, vents, and heaters based on real-time outdoor metrics, ensuring your crops remain protected and productive year-round. This sensor is a vital component for any professional greenhouse control setup.

FAQs

What does the MBS-WS measure?+

The MBS-WS measures four outdoor environmental parameters simultaneously: temperature, humidity, wind speed, and rainfall. All four readings are transmitted in real time to the GCS-1 controller to inform automated greenhouse management decisions.

Which TrolMaster controllers is the MBS-WS compatible with?+

The MBS-WS is designed specifically for use with the TrolMaster GCS-1 Greenhouse Control System. It connects via the included RJ12 to 4-Pin IP65 cable and communicates through RS485 digital protocol, which is native to the Green-X platform.

How does outdoor weather data improve greenhouse automation?+

By feeding live outdoor data into the GCS-1, the MBS-WS allows the controller to anticipate and respond to external conditions rather than relying solely on internal sensor readings. This enables smarter decisions around curtain positioning, ventilation timing, and climate setpoints before indoor conditions are impacted.

Is the MBS-WS suitable for permanent outdoor installation?+

Yes. The MBS-WS carries an IP54 ingress protection rating, making it resistant to dust and moisture for reliable year-round outdoor use. It ships with a mounting bracket and horizontal tool for straightforward, permanent installation.

How accurate are the MBS-WS temperature and humidity readings?+

The MBS-WS measures temperature with an accuracy of ±3°F across a range of -4°F to 122°F, and humidity with an accuracy of ±5% RH across a range of 0–90% RH. These tolerances are optimized for professional greenhouse environmental monitoring.

How far can the MBS-WS be installed from the GCS-1?+

The MBS-WS includes a 12ft RJ12 to 4-Pin IP65 connector cable as standard. Because it utilizes the RS485 digital communication protocol, it supports longer cable runs for installations where the sensor needs to be placed further from the controller.
