1. A system for moving a movable barrier between a first position and a second position, the system including:
a movable barrier operator configured to be connected to the movable barrier and move the movable barrier between the first position and the second position; and
a remote control configured to utilize a first security protocol to wirelessly transmit a communication to the movable barrier operator;
the movable barrier operator further configured to receive information representative of a second security protocol and to eliminate a compatibility of the movable barrier operator with communications utilizing the first security protocol from the remote control.
