Please help

Hi!

I want to write about a power window system of a passenger car.
As you know, the window at seats other than the driver seat can be operated by the switch at those seats and also by the switch at the driver seat. (The driver can operate the rear right window, for example.)

To distinguish an operation of a switch to move a window at that seat (where the switch is located) and operation to a switch to move a window at other seat (like the example above) can I say as below?

"operation of windows at respective seats"
"operation of windows at applicable seats"
"operation of windows at corresponding seats" 

vs
"operation of windows at other seats"

Thank you!

This would be easier if you gave the whole sentence, but can you just say "Passenger window operation"?

Thank you, Grammer Geek.

>This would be easier if you gave the whole sentence, but can you just say "Passenger window operation"?

Right. But I have to say that in various forms including tables. So the shorter is better.

"Passenger window operation" has a problem because "operation of window at respective seat" include driver seat window operation from the driver sea

Perhaps "individual window operation."
