As you enter this puzzle, you find yourself in a large centeral room with a pillar in the middle. There are rooms to the left, right, and in front. The left room is blocked off by a blue door that is initially inactive, because there is a pressure plate behind it with a connector already standing on it. In the right room, there is an inverter, a red receiver, and a fan with a hexahedron on it. This room is blocked off by a purple barrier on one side, and a standard height grill on the other side. The pillar in the center has a blue emitter on the far side, facing the room in front. In that room, there are two blue doors one after the other. The first one has a red emitter outside, then an inverter is placed in the middle. The second one needs both a blue and a red receiver to be deactivated. | |||

Overview
As you enter this puzzle, you find yourself in a large centeral room with a pillar in the middle. There are rooms to the left, right, and in front. The left room is blocked off by a blue door that is initially inactive, because there is a pressure plate behind it with a connector already standing on it. In the right room, there is an inverter, a red receiver, and a fan with a hexahedron on it. This room is blocked off by a purple barrier on one side, and a standard height grill on the other side. The pillar in the center has a blue emitter on the far side, facing the room in front. In that room, there are two blue doors one after the other. The first one has a red emitter outside, then an inverter is placed in the middle. The second one needs both a blue and a red receiver to be deactivated.
