In one aspect, a remote server computer is provided for facilitating operation of movable barrier operator systems having imminent motion notification apparatuses. The remote server computer includes a processor, a memory, and a network interface for communicating state change commands to the movable barrier operator systems via a network. The remote server computer is configured to receive a confirmation indicating that a sensor check has been performed to test sensors of those systems. Upon receiving a state change request from a remote control associated with a movable barrier operator system, the processor may determine whether the confirmation has been received for that system, and if so, causes communication of an attended command signal that inhibits operation of an imminent motion notification apparatus of the movable barrier operator system. Otherwise, the remote server computer may communicate an unattended command signal.
