  • Publication number: 20240191567
    Abstract: A window covering system and a calibration method therefor are provided for generating a safe distance between a middle rail and a lower rail according to status of a first lifting cord. The calibration method includes moving the middle and lower rails upwardly until reaching their initial positions, moving down the lower rail a predetermined distance and storing the detected position thereof as a first position, moving down the middle rail until a switch transmits a first signal as the first lifting cord running through the switch becomes loose, moving up the middle rail until the switch stops transmitting the first signal as the first lifting cord becomes tense, storing the detected position of the middle rail as a second position, and generating the safe distance according to the first and the second positions such that the middle rail is prevented from being pushed by the lower rail.

  • Publication number: 20220162908
    Abstract: A method of controlling multiple electric window coverings includes the following steps: A. receive a check command, which is created from an electronic device operated by the user; B. compare battery levels of batteries of the electric window coverings to at least one power threshold; C. control the electric window coverings based on a comparison result obtained in the previous step, wherein, when the battery level of the battery of any one of the electric window coverings is greater than the power threshold, said electric window covering makes a first response; when the battery level of the battery of any one of the electric window coverings is less than the power threshold, said electric window covering makes a second response. Whereby, the user could learn the battery level of the battery of each of the electric window coverings from the response it makes.

  • Patent number: 11146085
    Abstract: A charging system for an electric window covering, which includes a motorized assembly controlling the movement of the electric window covering, and a power supply device including a rechargeable power unit and a first remaining power detection circuit is disclosed. The charging system comprises a charging device which provides power to the power supply device, a comparison module, and a notification unit. The first remaining power detection circuit detects the potential magnitude of the power unit, and the detected value is transmitted to the comparison module to be compared. If the potential magnitude is less than a predetermined threshold, a warning is presented at a notification unit. By actively presenting the warning to the user when the power of the power unit is low, the power supply device and the charging system can achieve the objectives of providing an active notification and extending the run-time of the power unit.

  • Patent number: 8918489
    Abstract: In a method for automatically connecting a mobile device to a server, an update command is periodically sent to a first server wirelessly connected to the mobile device after the mobile device enters a sleep mode. The update command requires a network status of the first server. The mobile device is waken when the network status is not acquired within a predetermined time period. Alternate servers are searched for to generate a list of server names. A target server is selected from the list, and a connection command is sent to the target server for establishing a connection between the mobile device and the target server. Network setting information is acquired from the target server. The connection between the mobile device and the target server is established according to the network setting information.

  • Publication number: 20100273513
    Abstract: A mobile phone includes a subscriber identity module (SIM) card, a SIM application toolkit (STK) driver, a STK interface and a user interface. The STK interface sends a selection command to the SIM card via the STK driver. The SIM card generates an input command according to the selection command, and sends the input command to the user interface via the STK driver. The user interface displays an input box on a display screen for receiving a user-inputted recipient phone number of a recipient mobile device according to the input command. The STK driver sends the multimedia messaging service (MMS) message to the recipient mobile device according to the recipient phone number if the message is an SMS message, and sends the short messaging service (SMS) message to the recipient mobile device according to the recipient phone number if the message is an MMS message.
