ABSTRACT:
A motorized window blind actuator including input means for receiving regulated voltage and first variable reference voltage signal. A motor having an output shaft which connects to the window blinds to open and close the window blinds is controlled by a controller/driver component. A transducer is operatively associated with the output shaft of the motor to assist in producing a second voltage reference signal which is related to the actual position of the motor output shaft, and in turn related to the actual position of the slats of the window blind. The first voltage reference signal is related to the desired setting and position of the window blind. First and second voltage reference signals are continually compared. If they are sufficiently different, the motor is directed by the controller/driver to adjust the window blinds until signals are sufficiently the same, or, until the output shaft of the motor hits physical limits which cause an over current situation resulting in stoppage of the motor.
