Publication number: 20230371144Abstract: A load control system has a system controller and a plurality of load control devices which receive power from a utility power source. The load control system also includes at least one emergency load control device which receives power from a backup power source in the event of a power failure of the utility power source. The emergency load control device is configured to enter an emergency mode during the power failure of the utility power source, wherein in the emergency mode, the emergency load control device controls respective electrical loads according to emergency mode preset settings, and the emergency load control device transmits a message to the system controller to indicate the emergency load control device is in the emergency mode. The system controller is configured to transmit a message to the emergency load control device to exit the emergency mode when power from the utility power source is restored.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 28, 2023Publication date: November 16, 2023Applicant: Lutron Technology Company LLCInventors: David J.

Publication number: 20230193691Abstract: As described herein, a motorized window treatment may be configured to synchronize its covering material with other motorized window treatments if movement of the covering material has been delayed. The motor drive unit may receive a message including a command via wireless signals, and rotate a roller tube to adjust a present position of the covering material at an increased rate in response to determining that adjustment of the covering material in response to the command is delayed. The control circuit may determine a delay time between when the other motorized window treatments began to move and when the motor drive unit begins to move in response to the command. The control circuit may begin adjusting the present position of the covering material at a nominal rate in response to determining that the covering material is synchronized with the other motorized window treatments using the determined delay time.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 17, 2022Publication date: June 22, 2023Applicant: Lutron Technology Company LLCInventors: Jackson Burlew, Robert Jesse Thompson
