Default Remote Auto Electric cutout ???

So I have 2 Summit E cutouts wired to one switch in my dash.
I have an autopage alarm w/ un used accessory buttons on the remotes
I bought a window roll up / roll down module for the alarm
was wondering if I can wire my window module to the alarm, and to the cutouts instead of the window...
that way when i press the button on my remote the cutouts open, press again and they will close...
The only thing i realized is the cutouts dont stop until you release the button, so do the window modules have timers??
it is an Xpress module...
Any help please
thank you

personally, if u wanted to do this i would do the following: get timer relays. wire the alarm outputs to the timer relays, that way when u select that channel{whatever button configuration it is} the alram woudl puslse the timer relay which would then output for whatever time u set. i would just time how long it takes to go from open to close then close to open and set the relays respectively, by metering the output of the relay.

Sounds pretty simple,
how would I wire the cutouts to this?
Would i even need the window module?

Nope, u would then wire the output of the timer relays into 2 regular relays that were set up for a reverse polarity connection(which replace ur switch).
