I've used the Swish motorised rail in my AV room.

I ran a CAT5 to the top of this window when Keith and I wired the house
before the plastering started.  The curtain works on a momentary contact
switch which I have to wire up yet.  I need a relay and I will use one of
HomeVisions outputs to pulse the relay.  I will then have remote control of
the curtains.

There is a review on my site of one of the retro fit curtain motors, but
several people have said they sound like an electric tin opener when they
operate! :-)
