I have worked/installed and repaired thousands of awnings over my life and I have NEVER seen such a device. The usual is to install the wall switch that reverses the Polarity. Is you wall switch a momentary push button(you do NOT have to hold it to extend or retract?). Or is it only push one way and that part you showed reverses the polarity as long as you hold the button? I will bet it is NOT supplied by the awning maker. What brand awning do you have? Doug
