This shot pretty much shows all of it reinstalled. You can see the windlass behind the scope. This opens and closes the shutter. You can see a shutter relay box, an azmuth wheel that detects the position of the dome and the home contact switches. Higher up in the dome are some end of travel swithches that stop the shutter when fully open or closed.
