RETRACTABLE AWNING DAMAGE PREVENTION A method and device for preventing wind damage to a retractable awning comprises a processor that detects an oscillatory characteristic of movement signals received from an awning movement sensor, and generates an awning retraction signal if the oscillatory characteristic meets a predetermined retraction criterion. The sensor may comprise a gyroscopic sensor that detects angular movement of an awning portion and generates corresponding angular movement signals. The processor may detect predetermined angular movement signal events in the angular movement signals, calculate time elapsed between the events, and transmit a retraction signal when an angular movement signal characteristic relating to time elapsed between angular movement signal events meets at least one predetermined retraction criterion. ---------------- O-
