=Easy Guide to Fixing Telecomms=
The radio stopped working all of a sudden? Or did someone just blow up the tcomms again? Here's a quick checklist-guide to see what's wrong and how to fix it:

# '''Has it been partly blown up?'''
## Ensure that the room APC has power.
## See which of these machine/machines are missing/blown up: Receiver, Bus, Processor, Broadcaster.
## Reset one of each machines, which are still functional, with a multitool (unlink and remove all frequencies).
## Go to [[#Can_We_Fix_It?|Can We Fix It]], build the missing machines and link them by following instructions.
### (For example, if everything except the SMES, APC, Receiver and Bus has been destroyed, you still need a Processor and a Broadcaster. Reset the Receiver and Bus, construct Processor and Broadcaster, link them to the Bus and voíla.)
# '''Completely blown to shit or stolen and thrown into the singulo?'''
## Go to [[#Can_We_Fix_It?|Can We Fix It]] and follow instructions.
# '''Everything intact but machines are off (no pretty flashing lights on the machines)?'''
## Was there a Central Command Update for something like ''"Ionospheric anomalies detected. Temporary telec#MCi46:5.;@63-BZZZZT"'', if so, wait a few minutes and equipment will come back online automatically. Note that this can happen without sending you any kind of warning, so just wait 5 minutes if nothing else works to see if the machines come back alive on their own.
## Check APC: Main breaker and equipment should be on. If not, turn them back on.
## Check equipment with a multitool and see if Power is set to ''on''? If no, turn back on.
# '''Equipment is on, but still nothing heard through radio?'''
## Check Telecommunication Hub with a multitool.
### Network name set to ''tcommsat''? If no, set it back to ''tcommsat'' and...
#### Go down the Telecommunication Hub's menu until you see ''MULTITOOL BUFFER''.
#### Click ''[Add Machine]'', the Hub's info is now inside your multitool's memory.
#### Use multitool on a Subspace Receiver (for example, you will have to do this for every machine anyway).
#### Scroll down the menu and click ''[Link]'' to link the machine back to the Hub.
#### Repeat this for every machine (except smes, blackbox recorder, messaging server and computers outside).
## Check other devices that they have power on and correct network name.
## Go to Telecommunications Traffic Control Console.
### Log in.
### Scan for servers.
### Click on a server.
### Go back to main menu and repeat steps for all servers.
