SLACK CABLE DETECTION IN MOVABLE BARRIER OPENER SYSTEMS
Systems and methods for a movable barrier opener system include a motor for moving a barrier along a defined travel path, and a movable barrier operator controller. The movable barrier operator controller may be configured to: initially define and store a first movable barrier behavioral profile indicative of a successful barrier run along the defined travel path, without barrier travel interruption, wherein the first movable barrier behavioral profile includes at least one position factor; and subsequently define a second movable barrier behavioral profile indicative of a currently monitored barrier run along the defined travel path, wherein the second movable barrier behavioral profile includes the at least one position factor. The movable barrier operator controller also may be configured to drive the motor to move the barrier and provide periodical reversal pulses to the motor; compare the first and second movable barrier behavioral profiles to determine a door position discrepancy between the position factor of the first movable barrier behavioral profile and the position factor of the second movable barrier behavioral profile, and interrupt the operation of the motor only when the door position discrepancy is indicative of an anomalous barrier travel condition.
