Abstract:
A motorized window treatment provides a low-cost solution for controlling the amount of daylight entering a space through a window. The window treatment includes a covering material, a drive shaft, at least one lift cord rotatably received around the drive shaft and connected to the covering material, and a motor coupled to the drive shaft for raising and lowering the covering material. The window treatment also includes a spring assist unit for assisting the motor by providing a torque that equals the torque provided by the weight on the cords that lift the covering material at a position midway between fully-open and fully-closed positions, which helps to minimize motor usage and conserve battery life if a battery is used to power the motorized window treatment. The window treatment may comprise a photosensor for measuring the amount of daylight outside the window and temperature sensors for measuring the temperatures inside and outside of the window. The position of the covering material may be automatically controlled in response to the photosensor and the temperature sensors to save energy, or may also be controlled in response to an infrared or radio-frequency remote control.

Claim (Index 1):
A control device responsive to RF signals transmitted by an RF transmitter, the RF transmitter adapted to transmit a number of consecutive packets at a predetermined transmission rate during a given transmission event, each of the consecutive packets characterized by a packet length, the control device comprising:\n an RF receiver adapted to receive packets from the RF transmitter, the RF receiver configured to be periodically enabled for a sample time period to determine if the RF transmitter is transmitting one of the consecutive packets, the RF receiver configured to a sleep mode for a sleep time period between consecutive sample time periods if the RF receiver determines that the RF transmitter is not transmitting one of the consecutive packets during the sample time period; and a controller operatively coupled to the RF transceiver, wherein after determining that the RF transmitter is transmitting one of the consecutive packets during the sample time period, the control circuit is configured to receive a subsequent packet; wherein the sleep time period of the RF receiver is longer than the packet length of each of the consecutive packets, and the sample time period and the sleep time period between sample time periods are sized such that the sample time period coincides with at least one of the predetermined number of consecutive packets in the transmission event.
