Description
The ATA Network Transceiver NTR-1V2 – Part No. 86948 is a genuine Automatic Technology communication module designed to connect compatible ATA garage door openers to the ATA Network Smart Hub and Smart Phone Control system.
The transceiver is installed at the compatible garage door opener and provides the communication link between the opener and the Network Smart Hub. This allows supported commands and door status information to be exchanged with the ATA smartphone control platform.
Part No. 86948 is particularly associated with the ATA Tempo ATS-2 and Synchro ATS-3 sectional garage door openers.
📡 Connects the Opener to the Smart Hub
The NTR-1V2 acts as the communication interface between the compatible ATA garage door opener and the ATA Network Smart Hub.
Once installed and correctly paired, the transceiver allows the opener to communicate with the smart control system.
This enables supported functions such as:
- Smartphone garage door control
- Remote opening and closing
- Door status monitoring
- Smart notifications
- Activity monitoring
- Remote access through the ATA smartphone platform
📱 Enables ATA Smart Phone Control
The NTR-1V2 forms part of a complete ATA Smart Phone Control installation.
The transceiver itself does not connect the garage door opener directly to the internet. Instead, it communicates with the Network Smart Hub, which provides the network connection required for smartphone functionality.
A complete compatible installation typically consists of:
- Compatible ATA garage door opener
- NTR-1V2 Network Transceiver – Part No. 86948
- ATA Network Smart Hub
- Suitable network / internet connection
- ATA smartphone application
- Compatible safety beam system
🌐 Works with the ATA Network Smart Hub
The NTR-1V2 requires a compatible ATA Network Smart Hub to provide smartphone connectivity.
The transceiver communicates between the opener and Smart Hub, while the Smart Hub connects the system to the network and ATA smartphone platform.
The Network Smart Hub is a separate component and should be purchased separately unless one is already installed at the property.
🔄 Add an Opener to an Existing Smart Hub
The NTR-1V2 is particularly useful where an ATA Network Smart Hub is already installed and another compatible garage door opener needs to be connected.
This can be useful for properties with:
- Double garages with separate openers
- Multiple garage doors
- Multiple compatible ATA operators
- An existing ATA Smart Phone Control installation
Rather than installing another complete Smart Hub system, an additional compatible transceiver can be added to the appropriate opener.
🔧 Replacement Network Transceiver
Part No. 86948 can also be used to replace an existing compatible network transceiver.
This may be required where the original transceiver has:
- Failed
- Been physically damaged
- Developed communication problems
- Been removed from the installation
- Been damaged during servicing or replacement of the opener
Replacing the transceiver can restore communication between the compatible opener and existing Network Smart Hub without replacing the entire Smart Phone Control system.
🔌 Operator Connection Harness
The 86948 transceiver kit includes the connection components required to interface the transceiver with its compatible opener.
Published product information for Part No. 86948 identifies the kit as including the Network Transceiver, a 400mm timing harness and associated mounting hardware.
The correct connection arrangement depends on the compatible operator and should be installed according to the relevant ATA instructions.
🧩 Part of a Modular Smart Control System
ATA uses a modular approach to smartphone control across its garage door opener range.
The Network Smart Hub provides the central network connection, while an appropriate transceiver is selected according to the opener model.
This means the correct transceiver is important when adding smartphone functionality.
The NTR-1V2 should not automatically be substituted for another ATA network transceiver simply because the modules perform a similar function.
📲 Remote Garage Door Operation
When installed as part of a complete compatible system, the NTR-1V2 allows supported smartphone commands to be communicated to the garage door opener.
This can provide convenient remote access for situations such as:
- Opening the garage when arriving home
- Providing access to authorised users
- Operating the garage without a handheld remote
- Checking the garage while away from home
- Managing access through the ATA smartphone system
A functioning Smart Hub, internet connection and compatible operator are required for remote functionality.
👀 Door Status Monitoring
Smart control provides more than simply another method of opening the garage door.
The communication system also allows supported door status information to be returned through the Network Smart Hub.
This enables the compatible smartphone platform to provide information relating to the garage door’s current status and activity.
🔔 Smart Notifications
Compatible ATA Smart Phone Control systems can provide notifications relating to garage door activity.
This provides additional visibility over the garage door when the user is away from the property and can be particularly useful in households where several people regularly use the garage.
Available functionality depends on the connected opener and current ATA smartphone platform.
🔄 Existing Garage Door Remotes Still Work
Installing the NTR-1V2 does not replace the existing remote control receiver in the garage door opener.
Compatible handheld remotes and wall controls can continue to operate normally.
The NTR-1V2 simply adds the communication interface required for supported smartphone functionality.
This allows users to operate the garage door through either:
- Existing handheld remotes
- Existing wall controls
- ATA smartphone control
🛡️ Smart Control & Garage Door Safety
Smartphone control differs from a conventional handheld remote because the garage door may be operated while the user is away from the property.
The user may therefore not have direct line-of-sight of the garage door when it begins moving.
For this reason, appropriate obstruction detection and safety equipment are essential when smart control is enabled.
⚠️ Safety Beams Required for Smart Control
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.
The garage door and opener should also be correctly maintained and tested to ensure safe automatic operation.

The NTR-1V2 – Part No. 86948 is a genuine Automatic Technology component intended for compatible ATA Smart Phone Control installations.
Using the correct transceiver helps ensure the communication interface and connection arrangement are appropriate for the compatible garage door opener and Network Smart Hub.
