Hayward OmniX™ Gateway W3GATEWAYX1 Remote Pool Automation Hub How the OmniX Gateway Works
Hayward OmniX is an embedded-intelligence platform that turns pumps, heaters, lights, and chlorinators into a fully connected pool ecosystem — without a traditional centralized automation controller. Your OmniX equipment wirelessly forms its own purpose-built network optimized for pool environments. The OmniX Gateway (W3GATEWAYX1) plugs into that network and connects it to your home Wi-Fi, creating a secure bridge to the cloud. Once connected, the OmniX app gives you instant remote access to schedules, water temperature, pump speeds, and system performance from anywhere in the world.
