I was thinking of doing that.  Can the down IR command be programed to
run fora time period?  So i can get the screen exactly where i want
it. Save me opening the screen to adjust the lower position and
voiding my waranty.

Where did you get it? Can i just buy it directly from Marata?

Thanks
Brian
