Description
The ATA Network Smart Hub – Part No. 14879 is a genuine Automatic Technology connectivity device designed for compatible ATA garage door and gate automation systems.
The Network Smart Hub forms the central connection between compatible ATA operators and the Automatic Technology smartphone control platform. When used with the correct network transceiver and compatible operator, it enables supported smart features including remote operation, status monitoring and notifications through the ATA smartphone app.
It is suitable for both new smart control installations and as a replacement hub for an existing compatible ATA smartphone control system.
📱 Enables Smartphone Control
The Network Smart Hub is a key component of the ATA Smart Phone Control system.
Once connected to the property’s network and paired with the appropriate operator equipment, it allows a compatible ATA garage door or gate operator to communicate with the Automatic Technology smartphone platform.
Depending on the connected operator and system configuration, available functionality can include:
- Remote opening and closing
- Door or gate status monitoring
- Smartphone operation
- Push notifications
- Activity monitoring
- Remote access while away from the property
🌐 Connects Your ATA System to the Network
The 14879 Network Smart Hub provides the network gateway required for compatible ATA smart control installations.
The garage door or gate operator communicates with the Network Smart Hub through the appropriate ATA network transceiver. The Smart Hub then provides the network connection required for supported smartphone functionality.
This allows compatible existing ATA automation systems to gain connected functionality without replacing the complete garage door or gate operator.
🔌 Works with an ATA Network Transceiver
The Network Smart Hub is one component of the complete ATA smart control system.
A compatible installation generally consists of:
- ATA Network Smart Hub – Part No. 14879
- Compatible ATA garage door or gate operator
- Appropriate ATA Network Transceiver
- Required transceiver connection harness
- Network / internet connection
- Automatic Technology smartphone app
The correct network transceiver depends on the particular operator model and should be confirmed before ordering.
🏠 Central Hub for Compatible ATA Operators
The 14879 acts as the central communications hub for compatible ATA smart automation systems.
This modular arrangement allows ATA to use different network transceivers with different operator platforms while retaining a common Smart Hub as the network connection point.
This makes the system suitable for a range of compatible residential garage door and gate automation products.
📲 Remote Door & Gate Monitoring
When installed as part of a complete compatible ATA Smart Phone Control system, the Network Smart Hub allows users to monitor their connected garage door or gate through the supported smartphone application.
This can provide greater visibility over the status of the automation system while away from the property.
For example, users can check whether a connected garage door has been left open without having to physically return to the property.
🌎 Remote Operation
Compatible smart control systems allow the connected garage door or gate to be operated remotely through the smartphone application.
This can be particularly convenient for:
- Arriving home without a remote
- Providing access to family members
- Checking the garage door while away
- Controlling a gate remotely
- Managing access to the property
- Reducing reliance on physical remote controls
Remote operation requires the Smart Hub, operator and associated network equipment to remain connected and operational.
🔔 Smart Notifications
Compatible ATA smartphone control systems can provide notifications relating to the operation or status of the connected garage door or gate.
Notifications provide additional visibility over the automation system and can be particularly useful where multiple people regularly access the property.
Available notification and monitoring functions may vary according to the connected operator and current smartphone platform.
🔄 Upgrade Compatible Existing ATA Openers
The Network Smart Hub can form part of an upgrade to add smartphone connectivity to selected existing ATA garage door and gate operators.
Where the existing operator supports network connectivity, the appropriate network transceiver can be installed and connected to the Smart Hub.
This provides a convenient way of adding modern smart functionality without replacing an otherwise serviceable garage door or gate operator.
🔧 Replacement Network Smart Hub
Part No. 14879 can also be used as a replacement Network Smart Hub for an existing compatible ATA Smart Phone Control installation.
This may be useful where:
- The original Smart Hub has been damaged
- The existing hub has failed
- A hub has been lost during relocation
- An existing smart control installation requires replacement hardware
The replacement Smart Hub may require setup, pairing and configuration before normal smartphone functionality is restored.
🏡 Garage Door & Gate Applications
The ATA Network Smart Hub can be used as part of compatible smart control systems across selected garage door and gate automation products.
Depending on the operator and network transceiver, applications can include:
- Sectional garage door openers
- Roll-up garage door openers
- Sliding gate operators
- Swing gate automation
- Residential access systems
Compatibility should always be confirmed against the exact operator model before ordering.
🧩 Modular Smart Control System
ATA uses a modular approach to smartphone connectivity across compatible automation products.
Rather than requiring the same communication module to physically connect to every operator, the system can use an operator-specific network transceiver together with the Network Smart Hub.
This allows the appropriate transceiver to be selected according to the automation equipment while retaining the Network Smart Hub as the central network connection.
📡 Internet Connection Required
Remote smartphone functionality requires the Network Smart Hub to maintain a suitable network and internet connection.
If the property’s internet connection is unavailable, remote smartphone functionality may be temporarily unavailable even though the garage door or gate operator can continue to operate through its conventional controls.
Normal operation through compatible handheld remotes, wall controls and other local controls is generally independent of the Smart Hub.
🛡️ Smart Control & Safety
Smartphone control differs from conventional remote control operation because the user may be able to activate the garage door while away from the property.
The user may therefore not have direct line-of-sight of the garage door when it begins operating.
Appropriate safety devices are particularly important when remote smart operation is enabled.
⚠️ Safety Beams for Smart-Controlled Garage Doors
Australian Standards require appropriate safety protection where an automatic garage door can be remotely operated without the user having direct line-of-sight of the door.
For smart-controlled garage door applications, compatible photoelectric safety beams should be installed and correctly commissioned before remote smartphone operation is enabled.
Safety beams monitor the garage door opening and allow the compatible opener to detect an obstruction during operation.
🔄 Existing Remotes Can Still Be Used
Adding an ATA Smart Phone Control system does not replace the normal remote controls used with the garage door or gate operator.
Compatible existing handheld remotes, wall controls and other local controls can continue to operate alongside the smartphone control system.
Smartphone connectivity simply provides an additional method of monitoring and controlling the compatible automation system.
