1. A movable barrier operator for moving a barrier between limit positions, comprising:
- a motor attachable to the barrier;
at least one non-network device;
at least one network device; and
a controller connected to said motor, said controller communicating operational signals between said at least one non-network device and said at least one network device to said motor, and communicating operational signals between said motor and said at least one non-network device and said at least one network device.

Abstract
A networked movable barrier operator for moving a barrier between limit positions including a motor attachable to the barrier, at least one non-network device, and at least one network device. A controller is connected to the motor and communicates operational signals between the non-network device and the network device to the motor, and communicates operational signals between the motor and the non-network device and the network device.

10. A system for moving a barrier between limit positions comprising:
-
a motor linked to the barrier;
a non-network receiver;
a network transceiver, and an operator controller programmed to;
maintain an operator memory device which stores approved codes therein;
receive operational signals from non-network devices via non-network receiver and from network devices via said network transceiver, said operational signals having a command code contained therein; and
compare said command codes to said approved codes, and if a match is found, generate another said operational signal to one of said motor, said non-network devices, and said network devices. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)
