You should be able to run PSTRotator from a pc in the barn with a USB
controlled controller ie GH, if you have network out there and remote.
The program might allow control from another pc too. I have not used it
in a long time but it worked really well when I did.

I want to thank everyone that replied to my question about controlling
rotators on distance towers. The response was overwhelming with many
different approaches. I am going to try locating a controller in a barn,
100 feet from the tower where I have AC power, and running CAT-5 cable as
control and position lines to the shack approximately 350 feet away. I am
hoping that this will get me operational quickly and then I can work on a
wireless solution, perhaps using a WiFi connection to the barn, as time
allows.
Please pardon my slow response. I really appreciate everyone taking the
time to share their experience and recommendations.
