Read shutter position from spectrometer

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Add ability to read the current shutter position from the spectrometer to the 
Spect Control VI.

Currently: I figured out how to use their ActiveX methods to communicate with 
the spectrometer, but "GetCurrentShutterPosition" causes an error every time. 
I'm wondering if this refers to a shutter controlled by the spectrometer 
itself, rather than the one controlled by the CCD (which we have).  If we 
don't have the shutter it's talking about, that would explain why I just get 
an error.

Unfortunately, this is the only mention I've found so far of reading any 
shutter position.  I'll call the company and see if there's a way to do it.

The spectrometer's control panel now simply sets the shutter to closed when it
starts, so that we know what state the shutter is in.
