1. A method of controlling a motorized window treatment in response to a command, the motorized window treatment comprises a motor selectively driven by a bus voltage, the method comprising the steps of:

  • driving the motor in response to the command;

    monitoring the magnitude of the bus voltage;

    comparing the magnitude of the bus voltage to a first voltage threshold;

    decreasing the amount of current supplied to the motor if the magnitude of the bus voltage has dropped below the first voltage threshold;

    comparing the magnitude of the bus voltage to a second voltage threshold after the step of stopping driving the motor; and

    increasing the amount of current supplied to the motor if the magnitude of the bus voltage has risen above the second voltage threshold.
