The window controller initiates a window opening routine when the multi-action switch is in the first activated position. The window controller initiates a window closing routine when the multi-action switch is in the second activated position and the window open indicator is received. Finally, the window controller initiates a window vent routine when the multi-action switch is placed in the second activated state and the window closed indicator is received.
