It will function in that capacity. I use it to open 2 garage doors. Let go of it, it's off. Forward will give you power for one thing and backward will power something else. It is momentary though. You have to hold it to keep current flowing.

You will be able to push up for compressor and down for release. Only thing is the icons on the toggle, they are pad locks, one is open and the other is close. But if you can live with that then you've got it made.

Yup, did exactly that!
