A list of all Thor MC installed accessories is pasted on the inside of your bedroom closet door. It list the manufacturer, vendor and serial number installed. Plant 750 usually uses Carefree of Colorado Latitude patio awning. Usually the patio awnings on the Freedom Traveler and the ACE do not have the auto retract module (Rapid Response). These awnings can be updated with a Rapid Response kit.
To test to see if the module is installed, extend the awning fully; then with a broom or squeegee handle, hit the forward end of the awning's plastic cover twice in rapid succession. The Rapid Response module is a movement sensor, not a wind sensor. If it retracts all is as good as it gets.
I will say depending on the Rapid Response module to save your patio awning is like depending on your anti-lock brakes to prevent a collision.
