1. A movable barrier operator which operably communicates with at least one remote user interface, which remote user interface has at least one user-accessible button or switch which during ordinary use permits a user to assert the button or switch to cause a movable barrier to presently move from a first position to a second position, the movable barrier operator comprising: a movable barrier motive force interface; a data bus that permits the movable barrier operator to communicate with the at least one remote user interface; an operating parameters memory having at least one operating parameter stored therein that was received from another and different movable barrier operator via the data bus; a controller that is operably coupled to the operating parameters memory and having an input operably coupled to the data bus and an output operably coupled to the movable barrier motive force interface, the at least one operating parameter that is received from the another and different movable barrier operator and stored in the operating parameters memory is used by the movable barrier operator.
