The filter changer mechanism is positioned after the exit slit of the monochromator in the picture below (in back and to the left of the diffraction gratings) and is shown positioned before the monochromator in the patent. US patent 2,888,623 gives the details of the servo mechanism and some of the details of the electronic schematic. The detector appears to be the one disclosed in US patent 2,526,491.
