try this porch diagram
its not the same awning but might be of some help to work out how the poles go.
If you can work out how to erect the frame before you go that would be a big help when yoou use it. many porch frames are freestanding like a tent, so you could try erecting it in the garden to familiarise yourself with it
My porch is similar to the starcamp one , but I have another roof bar going side to side across the roof as well.
The back legs of mine (the ones that go against the caravan wall) are not straight like those in the diagram, but have a bend near the top of them .
You start by sliding the beading on the canvas through the awning rail, making sure that its not going to be inside out .
Find the best position, so its not obscuring the window if possible.
erect the frame, but dont extend the legs fully, place the frame under the canvas.
the short poles that go through the holes at the front of the canvas have to be put in. I find it easier to put these in through the front canopy first , before raising the frame to full height.
Mine has padded foam sides, that sit between the back poles and the caravan wall to stop damage to the van wall and cut draughts. tuck these in place and tie them to the poles.
Extend the legs to their full height , zip the doors up , extend the roof poles to tension the awning.
Then go outside and see that it all loooks nice and taut, close doors and peg the skirt down.
