Abstract:
A barrier operator feature enhancement device is designed to provide one or more features found in modern barrier operator devices and to incorporate those features into a previously installed barrier operator system. To facilitate ease of use, the barrier operator feature enhancement device can communicate with a large variety of barrier operators. Such communication may be wireless or wired, depending on the communication protocol implemented by a particular previously installed barrier operator. To facilitate the ease of installation, the device is designed to configure itself to operate with the communication protocol of the previously installed barrier operator. Once configured to be able to communicate with the previously installed barrier operator, the feature enhancement device works with the barrier operator to provide one or more additional features to enhance the capabilities of the previously installed barrier operator.

Claim (Index 12):
The method of  claim 9  wherein the apparatus includes a barrier operator communication module configured to communicate with a plurality of barrier operator types, the method further comprising:\n transmitting a control signal from the barrier operator communication module to a barrier operator to cause the barrier operator to move a movable barrier.
