The motor moves the shutter in the right directions but won't start the movement unless I pull the shutter off the limit switch. That may be because the software isn't setup for how this new system will function, I'll ask David. Also, the movement times out rather than stopping at the switch, but I expected that because that's how it was working before. I'll install the assembly tomorrow and hopefully the setup of the ND filter assembly will be similar and I'll be able to finish that one faster.
