Eric,
If your door uses a limit switch on the door or linkage itself, rather than i=
n the actuator, you could add another limit switch at the desired height alo=
ng with a switch to select which limit to use. It might be possible to rig a=
n external limit & switch it as above with the internal limit.=20
Peace,
Pat
