Abstract: An example window operator assembly comprises a motor, communication circuitry, and processor circuitry. The communication circuitry being configured to provide a first type of wireless communications and a second type of wireless communication with a first wireless communication system and a second wireless communication system. And, the processor circuitry being configured to identify connection loss between the communication circuitry and the first wireless communication system, and in response, cause the communication circuitry to switch to the second wireless communication system and cause the window operator assembly to perform an action.

Abstract: A lock assembly comprises a driving member, a drive assembly, and an engaging member. The drive assembly comprises a drive connector operatively connected to the driving member, a lead screw operatively connected to the drive connector, a carriage configured and arranged to move along the lead screw, and an elongate member operatively connected to the carriage. The driving member is configured and arranged to rotate the drive connector, and the drive connector is configured and arranged to rotate the lead screw. Rotation of the lead screw moves the carriage along the lead screw and the elongate member moves with the carriage between locked and unlocked positions. The engaging member is configured and arranged to selectively engage the elongate member in the locked position.

Abstract: A window operating system moves a window sash between an open position and a closed position. A window has a top member operatively connected to a bottom member by a first side member and a second side member to form a frame. The sash is mounted to the frame for relative movement between the open and closed positions. The window operating system comprises an operator and an elongate member. The operator has a rotating member, and the elongate member provides rotational movement to the rotating member of the operator and movement of the elongate member rotates the rotating member thereby opening and closing the sash.
