On the Deconstruction of Rust.G.B.
The rust from the button’s indicators are sure off.
-
Obtain 6 value by turing the serial number into separate numbers, converting letters to their A1Z26 counterparts.
- RA3SE4 -> 18, 1, 3, 19, 5, 4
-
Modulo each of the 6 values by 2. Treat this as binary.
- 18, 1, 3, 19, 5, 4 -> 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0
-
Take the 1st, 3rd, and 5th binary digits and make this your base main code. The base secondary code is obtained with the remainder.
- 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0 -> MAIN: 011; SEC: 110
- Find the color of the caged light, which will be referred to as the LED for the rest of this manual, and find its color in the table provided here. Convert this to binary.
| Color | K | R | G | B | C | M | Y | W |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bin | (000) | (100) | (010) | (001) | (011) | (101) | (110) | (111) |
-
Perform an XOR operation with the main code and the binary obtained from the LED. Repeat with the secondary code and the LED.
- To perform an XOR operation, stack the binaries on top of each other, and check each column one-by-one. If the amount of 1s in that column is odd, the output should return a 1 for that column, or 0 otherwise.
- Find the row of the second page corresponding the XORed result of the main code and the LED. If its condition is met, use the base target and modifier from the XORed result of the main code and LED as your solution. Otherwise use the XORed result of the secondary code and LED.
- Reference the original manual to determine how to obtain the base target. The modifiers can be obtained by just selecting their respective rectangular buttons mentioned in the table on the second page. The large rectangle button submits your combination. If this is incorrect, the LED will change colors. This manual does not provide a table consisting of all possible combinations.
