[Elecraft] K-3 Remote Power ON - OFF

[KZ5D at aol.com]

Hi,
 
 
I'm setting up the rig to operate from a remote location over the Internet. 
 On page 43, the manual has a very brief description of how to turn the 
radio on  and off.
 
If I activate a relay remotely to ground Pin 8 on the ACC socket, I can  
turn the radio on. Will it hurt anything if I use a relay that keeps this pin 
on  ground the entire time the radio is ON? Or do I need a momentary contact 
relay  to just give it the brief connection to ground?
 
Then to turn it off, the manual states that a PS0 cat command should be  
sent. Then deactivate the POWER ON signal. Specifically, after sending a cat  
command PS0, will I simply have to remove the ground from Pin 8 on the ACC  
socket? Or how will this be accomplished?
 
Thanks for the input.
