Electronic Description of Stage:

Controller is integral with PXL TV control box.  #4IES214 as of September 1999.  Coil resistance is 8.5 ohms.  24 volts to open and 3 volts to hold.  We add a reed switch and small magnet on one of the internal blades for sensing open/closed.  This is undocumented.  The factory limit switch for this function has a spring which is so strong it prevents the shutter from opening on cold nights.  Old part number: #04IES004 - turns out to be 12 volt shutter.
