  • Method for operating an actuator for manoeuvring a windable mobile element of a home automation appliance and actuator operating according to this method
    Patent number: 8907598
    Abstract: Method for operating an actuator for maneuvering a windable mobile element of a home automation appliance, the mobile element being able to be displaced between two extreme positions, the method comprising a first step for definition of a first angular speed setpoint of the actuator in a first docking area and a second step for definition of a second angular speed setpoint of the actuator in a second docking area, the first and second angular speed setpoints being different.
