awning poles? Am I missing parts?

I have what seem to be 4 shorter poles not as tall as the 68 Shasta with rubber stoppers on bottom and a nice pointed end ( im guessing this fit in the grommet holes)...and one pole that seems to be adjustable with a sharp pointed end, also has a ring that seems to slide on the pole somehow. . Was told by previous owner that awning didn't make it thru a storm. Sewing up my new one as we speak.  But cant figure out how the poles work. Am I missing parts? Anyone with a similar set up can you show me pics?
