Who This Is For
- You are setting up independent day and night fan speeds because high-volume air is only needed when lights are on.
- You are avoiding a full controller upgrade because you only need to manage fans and do not want to rewire everything.
- You are automating your airflow cycles because running fans at full speed all night wastes power and risks plant stress.
What We Found
- The physical knob makes tiny speed adjustments much faster than clicking through digital menus on a main controller.
- Make sure the photocell faces your light source directly or the day and night switch won't trigger at the right time.
What Users Say
- Users who switched from manual fans say they stopped worrying about humidity spikes during the transition to night.
- Users with tight vertical space can tuck this standalone remote into spots where larger controllers simply won't fit.
TrolMaster FRC-1 Aero-Fan Smart Fan Remote
Maintaining consistent airflow is critical for plant health, yet many growers waste energy and risk stress by running circulation fans at the same speed 24/7. The TrolMaster FRC-1 provides a specialized solution for those using the TrolMaster AeroFan Series, allowing for precise, automated control over your ventilation environment. By defining independent Day and Night speed setpoints, you can ensure high-volume air movement when lights are on and gentler, more efficient circulation during the dark cycle.
Designed as a standalone remote, the FRC-1 eliminates the need for a full-scale environmental controller like the Hydro-X system. It connects directly to your fans—such as the TrolMaster Aero-Fan V-6 Ventilation Fan—via the included ECS-9 cable. With its integrated photocell, the device automatically detects light transitions to switch speeds instantly, while the onboard LCD and intuitive knob interface make configuration simple and visible at a glance.

FAQs
Which fans is the FRC-1 compatible with?
The FRC-1 is designed specifically for use with TrolMaster AeroFan series ventilation fans. It controls compatible AeroFan units as a group, adjusting speed and toggling swing mode on oscillating models.
Does the FRC-1 require a separate TrolMaster controller to operate?
No, the FRC-1 is a standalone remote that connects directly to compatible AeroFan units via the included ECS-9 cable. It does not require a GCS-1, TCS-1, or any other master controller to function.
How does the built-in photocell handle day/night switching?
The integrated photocell monitors ambient light levels. When it detects a transition between light and dark, it automatically switches the connected fan group to the corresponding Day or Night speed setting.
Can I control fans in multiple zones with a single FRC-1?
The FRC-1 controls all connected AeroFans as a single group. For independent control of fans in separate rooms or zones, a dedicated FRC-1 is required for each zone.
Does the FRC-1 control oscillation on all AeroFan models?
Oscillation control is only available for oscillating AeroFan models. Please verify your specific fan model includes an oscillation function to use this feature.
