Red ( modules on bomb ) + 7 Orange ( green square buttons ) + 3 Green ( blue square buttons ) + 7 Purple sum of all digits on cube Blue ( position of wire ) + 5 White = 6 - The cube does six movements in order, then pause briefly and repeat.
Movements are observed from an aerial perspective upon the module.last digit in serial number = 4 first digit in serial number = 7 square buttons with the colour of 3rd wire square buttons with the colour of 1st wire - The left and bottom displays have eight symbols each, elongating in cycles.
Convert the symbols to digits from top to bottom, left to right.1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q
