TrolMaster Hydro-X Pro Control System (HCS-2)
The TrolMaster Hydro-X Pro Control System (HCS-2) is an advanced environmental controller designed to manage climate, CO₂, lighting and connected equipment in a professional single-room growing environment.
It combines a 10.1-inch touchscreen, expanded sensor and device capacity, configurable sub-zones, advanced lighting management, crop scheduling and remote access through the TrolMaster app and web platform.
Centralized Environmental Control
The Hydro-X Pro can automate compatible:
- Air conditioners and HVAC equipment
- Heaters
- Humidifiers and dehumidifiers
- CO₂ generators and regulators
- Ventilation equipment and fans
- Grow lights
- Pumps
- Programmable devices
- Compatible mini-split systems
You can assign specific sensors to individual control modules, allowing different areas of the same grow room to operate as separate environmental sub-zones.
MBS-PRO 4-in-1 Sensor Included
The HCS-2 includes a TrolMaster MBS-PRO 4-in-1 sensor that monitors:
- Air temperature
- Relative humidity
- CO₂ concentration
- Day/night light status
The sensor also includes an LCD display for convenient local monitoring.
The Hydro-X Pro supports up to 50 sensors and 50 device/control modules in combination, providing extensive expansion capacity for larger installations.
10.1-Inch Touchscreen
The large 10.1-inch touchscreen provides direct access to:
- Environmental readings
- Equipment status
- Setpoints
- Lighting settings
- Sensor information
- Schedules
- Historical data
- System configuration
This centralized interface simplifies setup and day-to-day monitoring.
Advanced Lighting Management
The Hydro-X Pro includes two independent lighting-control channels and supports compatible LED and HID systems through TrolMaster lighting adapters.
Available lighting functions can include:
- Programmable ON/OFF schedules
- Dimming
- Sunrise and sunset simulation
- Ramp-up and ramp-down
- PAR / PPFD-based control
- DLI monitoring
- Spectrum and group control with compatible fixtures
- Cloud-effect simulation
- Over-temperature protection
TrolMaster lists support for up to 256 HID fixtures per lighting channel, depending on the fixtures, adapters and communication protocol used.
PAR / PPFD and DLI Control
When paired with the optional MBS-PAR Full Spectrum Quantum Sensor, the HCS-2 can monitor PPFD and track Daily Light Integral (DLI).
Compatible lights can then be adjusted according to programmed light targets.
Crop Scheduling and Spray Mode
The built-in calendar lets growers create multi-week crop schedules with changing environmental settings and reminders for different production stages.
A dedicated Spray Mode can temporarily adjust selected equipment during foliar applications, such as reducing lighting or fan operation, then automatically restore normal settings afterward.
Remote Monitoring and Data Management
The HCS-2 supports remote access through:
- TrolMaster smartphone app
- TrolMaster web-based platform
Users can monitor conditions, review equipment status, receive notifications and adjust compatible settings remotely.
USB and MicroSD support also allows system data, settings and configurations to be saved, imported or exported.
Expandable RJ12 Architecture
Compatible sensors and device stations connect through RJ12 cabling and splitters and can be installed in a daisy-chain configuration.
For larger systems, the optional TrolMaster SPH-1 8-Port Hub can simplify connections and expansion.
