Jan,
I have a very basic but working windows solution. The Uniblitz shutter  
is connected to the shutter (SH) board of a Ludl Mac2000 controller.  
Using the javacomm API, I can send serial commands to the Ludl to  
open/close the shutter.
Let me know offlist if this would be working for your setup.

You should also visit Vincenzo Della Mea 's page at :
http://mitel.dimi.uniud.it/moss/ijstage.php
He has a macOs and a Win version of a stage controller that can most  
probably be used to control your shutter as well with minor changes.
