Sorry computer problems plus I am babysitting.

I am not sure why you need a sequencer. Here is the sequence (as I understand it) assuming the canopy starts in the "up" position with the locks "unlocked"

1.) The single "canopy channel" starts actuating slowly (in the "canopy down" direction).

2.) Canopy valve actuates and the canopy closes

3.) "Canopy channel" continues to move and the "canopy lock" valve now locks the canopy.


Canopy is now down and locked.

To open the canopy, the sequence is reversed.


1.) The single "canopy channel" starts actuating slowly (in the "canopy up" direction).

2.) First the "canopy lock" valve unlocks

3.) The "canopy channel" continues to move (in the "canopy up" direction) and then the canopy opens.


This ALL depends on being able to set the electronic valve actuating points far enough apart. This is basically what a JR channel expander does. But in some cases the electronic switches can be set far enough apart to accomplish the same thing.
