Ive experienced this remote imaging caper a fair bit recently ;-).
If someone, anyone, is on site while yr imaging, its easy, they push the roof off and on and watch the weather for you (and reset/unjamb mechanicals as required) all you need is remote control of the rigs PC.
If you want total unattended remote contol?, oh dear, think long and hard about that little adventure ;-).
Get a Boltwood Mk2 rain/weather sensor, period. And have it close yr automated OBs automatically when it needs to.
Fit an IP adressable power outlet box, so you can power cycle stuff when it hangs to reset.
Thats just the beginning. The mount alone needs to be bullit proof and accurate, its real hard fishing around the sky looking for stuff to sync on remotely ;-).
Its a worthy pursuit, but without some on site help, an expensive world of pain. Good luck.
