The positions of these two filter mechanisms are recorded as two adjacent digits in the data, so we can treat them as a single filter code; the second digit is 1 when the ``neutral'' filter is in the beam. There is also a shutter whose position is encoded separately in the data stream: 0 means open, 1 means shut. ...
