Our Gerard bedroom window awning is hooked into the 120v circuit with plug-in receptacles on the curb side of the bedroom. The switch to operate this awning is above the window at the foot of the bed. The GFI/receptacle for this 120v circuit is on the wall two feet forward of the same window near the other switches for the bedroom lights, slide, etc. I have had to reset this GFI a few times, but I don't know why it kicked out.
