Greenhouse light dep motor wiring question

Hi I’m Trying to plan out my light dep cover build. If you have experience with this over something similar please chime in.

How did you wire your greenhouse light dep cover motors to your timer? Is there a special switch that I don’t know about and should be looking for? I need one that will reverse the polls so the motor can go up and down w/o me manually switching a switch. Also I’m seeing an electrical box that attaches to two motors that can do the up down function, but not automatically. Did you buy one of these boxes or wire them up w/o the box?

any input would be appreciate. Thanks.

Maybe look into retractable awnings parts

Dep motors have stop switches built in. You need 24V DC power supply, a double pole double throw relay to switch the dc from +- to -+. And a timer.
Or you can spend big bucks on a already built one.
