Don't you just want the shutters to open at a settable temperature somewhere below that at which the fan comes on

shut at a settable temperature somewhere below that?

Yes, that is shown on the logic circuit above...

So isn't the same true for shutters?

True for OEM shutters that are fully integrated via the ECM and or PCM. If a problem arises, a CEL code is triggered.
In my case, I have to integrate the cooling fans operation status into the logic. The ON status on the GUI is nice to have, IMO.
Keep in mind that this entire process is for educational purposes on my end. Time is not a constraint. I am trying to learn new things and share the process along the way.

That is an integral part of the logic in the diagram above.
Considering the amount of effort required to automate the whole system, then why not have access to the information in real time, via the GUI also ? I mean, the GUI is mostly done. I just have to feed it data.
