Darmus frowned. The punchcard console being inactive, seemingly cut-off from power, made no sense. Judging from the dust patterns at the other station the lift was clearly in active use and this was definitely the Eclipse's base. He pinged his dataplague to it. He was able to monitor their entire network (or a subset of it) and for the past months they also mapped the area around the base and the comings and goings. Sure, something was happening up in the higher levels of Nar Shaddaa and it wasn't easy for the rangers to get down here even with support from their Zaa Fenn undercover, but that would count for the Sith as well, wouldn't it? Maybe prior to the AMS outbreak the lift had seen more use.. but who in their right mind wouldn't keep the stairs as an option? It just didn't make any sense, so he removed the cover to see if he could fix it and to his surprise found a much newer device underneath.
Kriff.
Nothing in the data he had been able to monitor had consisted any simple manual codes for access points. Still confident in his abilities, Darmus plugged in his datapad which had more than enough software uploaded to function as a code cylinder and just brute-force through a simple passcode. Thing is, nothing happened. Seconds lapsed, the software worked and yet the code was.. more complicated? The old ranger sighed towards Corran, "This could take days." He said it in almost a whisper as he ran the options in his head. If his current program couldn't do the trick in a timely manner, then this console was way more advanced that the one operating the lift. Had they been smart to take the stairs? Why was the main point of entry less secure than the emergency escape? Kriff. Darmus was getting a bad feeling about it.
