Abstract

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.
