Neil,

Yes, the remote control has an on/off power switch.  Assuming you use the
Key-In setup, the key will have to be in for the on/off power button on the
remote to work.

Someone asked me about contacting the company.  At the bottom of the page
is a phone number  1-800-659-8093) to call and it will probably be answered
by Sherrie.  Shipping was extremely quick.
