Per the wiki page here do you have MATLAB controling Micro-Manager
already setup?
https://micro-manager.org/wiki/Matlab_and_the_Micro-Manager_GUI
After setting up MATLAB control of Micro-Manager, you will have a
"core" object and per the link toward the buttom of that page, if the
Vincent was your default shutter you would need to use:

    core.setShutterDevice(state)

I also see you mention wanting the shutter to respond to another
(TTL?) input.  We would need to know in detail what you're trying to
accomplish on your system to be able to suggest how to go about that.
One way to go about responding to inputs is to have an Arduino setup
and making decisions in response to the Arduino-Input DeviceProperty.
