Shoot. I do have the remote but it has 4 channels. I guess the only way to make it work is to get 4 remotes, 1 for eachfor each channel. Thanks for the help guys.

I've just purchased motorized shades. During construction, we pre wired to control shades with ir blasters. We actually ended up purchasing RF controlled shades. I would like to automate the opening and closing,but unlike IR I haven't found a way to copy an RF signal. Does anyone know of a...

Ok, thanks for the input Guys. My Aux panel is just a few feet away. I think I still may try extending the ribbon connector as I would have 2 of the hardwire expanders and 1 Alc control board stacked in the main enclosure. The door shuts fine with 2 boards stacked, but with the standoff hex...
