Just curious, why did you use a set down transformer on a DC current instead of a voltage regulator?
Why not run a delay timer in your code for the screen going down? No need for the limit switch.
Just seeing this now. Why not a. let the screen go to its fully deployed length? Seems easier, looks like there is room behind that cabinet. or b. time a stop signal – I’d think that the screen motor runs same speed every time. Saves the trouble of making the limit switch thing.
if your screen is like mine it has adjustable limit switches in the unit.
