Abstract

See full text

A system for signaling the position of a movable barrier includes a movable barrier; a motor coupled to the movable barrier for moving the movable barrier between limit positions; a position detection device that monitors the movable barrier to generate a barrier position signal; and an indication device that receives the barrier position signal and indicate a position of the movable barrier relative to the limit positions. The system also includes an operation mechanism for controlling the motor and at least one transmitter device which generates a transmission signal received by the operator mechanism to energize the motor. The system further includes a blocking switch which generates a blocking signal received by the operator mechanism to prevent receipt of a transmission signal from a device other than one associated with the indication device.
