TrolMaster (Hong Kong) is the dominant brand in commercial cannabis environmental controls. Their modular IoT platform lets growers start with a single controller and expand as needed — adding sensors, device stations, and control modules across rooms and facilities. Every system connects to the free TM+ Pro smartphone app for remote monitoring, real-time alerts, and data logging from anywhere.
Six product series cover every aspect of cultivation control: Hydro-X for full-room climate management, Aqua-X for irrigation and fertigation automation, Carbon-X for CO₂ safety monitoring, Green-X for greenhouse operations, Tent-X for smaller grows, and Aero-Fan for intelligent ventilation. All ETL/FCC certified with RJ12 bus architecture supporting up to 1,000m device range. Distributed through Hydrofarm nationwide.
Start with one controller, add modules as you grow. Sensors, device stations, lighting adapters, and irrigation boards snap into the RJ12 bus. Low entry cost, unlimited expansion.
TM+ Pro app (iOS & Android) provides remote monitoring, real-time push alerts, and data visualization from anywhere. Web-based software for Pro controllers enables desktop management.
Environment, irrigation, CO₂ safety, lighting control, and ventilation — all from one integrated platform. Calendar-based crop “recipes” automate every variable through each growth stage.
RJ12 bus architecture supports devices up to 1,000 meters from the controller. Multi-room, multi-zone, and multi-facility deployments on a single network.
10+ lighting adapters support virtually every commercial grow light brand. 0-10V, digital, and group control with DLI management, spectrum tuning, and sunrise/sunset simulation.
Critical CO₂ monitoring for up to 13 zones. High/low level alerts, automatic shutoff, fire department interface, and ventilation fan control. Required for compliance in many jurisdictions.
Modular, RJ12 daisy-chain architecture — one ecosystem for environment, irrigation, and CO₂ safety. See the full system diagrams below.
Hydro-X controllers automate HVAC, mini-split AC, dehumidifiers, humidifiers, CO₂, fans, and timers from 3-in-1 / 4-in-1 sensors. Temperature, humidity, CO₂, and lighting device stations daisy-chain over standard RJ12 cable to a single controller — Hydro-X (HCS-1), Hydro-X Plus (HCS-3), or Hydro-X Pro (HCS-2).
Aqua-X (NFS) controllers run both time-based and demand-based irrigation across multiple zones. 24V / 110V control boards drive solenoid valves and pumps, while up to 50 pH, EC, moisture, and flow sensors trigger and monitor feeding — enabling flow-meter feeding, moisture-triggered irrigation, and multi-zone fertigation.
The Carbon-X CDA-1 monitors up to 13 CO₂ sensor zones (MBS-K30) and drives up to 40 outputs across five device types — alarm stations (AS-1–5), an emergency-stop that cuts the CO₂ solenoid (DSE-1), exhaust-fan and dry-contact stations, and fire-panel signaling — with high/low alerts and remote smartphone & email notifications.
