System and method for operating a transmitter

Abstract:

A communication system for communicating with a barrier operator for remotely controlling operation of a barrier. The communication system may include a remote device that can be handheld or incorporated into a vehicle. The communication system may also include a remote token separate from the remote device and capable of communicating information to the remote device. The remote device may be paired with a communication channel for communicating one or more commands to the barrier operator. The remote device may be configured to suppress or disable communication of a requested command on the communication channel until after information is received from the remote token that authorizes communication of the requested command on the communication channel.
