Who This Is For

  • You are integrating outdoor sensing because sudden wind gusts keep forcing your vent motors to work overtime.
  • You are automating curtain response because manually closing the greenhouse during rain costs too much in labor.
  • You are adding external monitoring because your internal sensors cannot react fast enough to outdoor temperature drops.

What We Found

  • The included horizontal tool is the most important part of the install to ensure wind speed readings stay accurate.
  • RS485 is a major win here because it keeps the data clean even with long cable runs near high-voltage gear.

What Users Say

  • Users say the wind threshold trigger saved their greenhouse film from tearing by closing vents before the gale hit.
  • Operators say they stopped checking weather apps every hour once they trusted the system to close up during rain.

TrolMaster Green-X MBS-WS Greenhouse Control

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.
