I am not going to be much help to you, however you may want to think twice about electric awning. I am from the old school of manual awning. Purchased a rig that had electric awning thought wow thats nice just push a button and the awning comes out. After a year with the rig and awning purchased a rig with old manual awning boy was I happy camper.
To me the electric just does not have enough adjustment for weather be it sun or rain, wind is awhole nother thing. Hopefully someone with experience with change over will help you out.
The awning is already purchased, so not using it isn’t an option.
