Once you have set a target and calibrated the teleporter, it is time to do the teleporting. Double check before you proceed that the '''Current target''' is set correctly and the '''Calibration''' is done. Once you have checked and it is all fine, press the teleporter station to activate the hub. Then walk into the hub and you will find yourself magically at the new destination.

Located in the [[Bridge]], south of the [[Head of Personnel's Office]], the Teleporter houses one of the two [[Hand Teleporter]]s on the station. It also provides a back door into any location with a [[Tracking Beacon]]. The teleporter room stores some [[Shield Generator]]s (ID-locked to Teleporter), for whatever purpose you can think of. Shield generation would be a good place to start.
This is a '''secure area''', and only the [[Captain]] and [[Research Director]] are authorized to enter. In practice it is pretty much broken into every round, whether by [[traitor]]s looking to steal the [[Hand Teleporter]] or [[Clown|chucklefucks]] trying to backdoor into the [[Captain's Quarters]]. The teleporter room contains shutters on the east for public access.
==Using the Teleporter==
The teleporter can be confusing at first, but is actually very simple to use.
The teleporter comes in three parts: [[File:Teleporter Control Console.gif]]The control console, [[File:Teleporter_controller.gif]] the teleporter station, and [[File:Teleporter_hub.gif]] the teleporter hub.
===Understanding the Teleporter interface===
[[File:HowTo_Teleporter1.png|400px]]
Begin by using the control console. It will bring up the same window as the one shown above (if no-one has used it yet).
At the top you will see three pieces of status information:
* Current regime
* Current target
* Calibration
Underneath that you will see three buttons:
* Change regime
* Set target
* Calibrate Hub
'''Regime''' is the current location of the teleporter that you are using.<br>
'''Target''' is the beacon that the teleporter will send you to when you step into the teleporter hub.<br>
'''Calibration''' is whether the teleporter is calibrated correctly. There will be further information below on this.
===Tracking Beacons===
To set up the teleporter, you will require a beacon in the desired location. These beacons are automatically detected by the teleporter.
At the start of the shift, the following [[Tracking Beacon]]s are available:
* [[AI Satellite]]
* [[Arrivals]]
* [[Atmospherics]]
* [[Bar]]
* [[Experimental Lab]]
* [[Experimental Lab|Experimentor Chamber]]
* [[Toxins Test Chamber|Bomb Testing Asteroid]]
* [[Bridge]]
* Fore Primary Hallway
* [[Technical Storage]]
* [[Telecommunications]] control room
* Teleporter
* [[Xenobiology]]
To choose a target destination, select '''Set target''' and choose a tracking beacon from the list that will appear. You will notice the '''Current target''' has changed on the status screen.
===Calibration===
Unless you calibrate the teleporter, or science actually upgrades it for once, it has a chance of malfunctioning. A malfunctioning teleporter will turn you into a fly person during the teleport. Gross!
To calibrate the teleporter, press '''Calibrate Hub'''. You will see the status screen say it is calibrating (shown by <span style="color: #CCCC00;">yellow</span> text). After a while the status screen will say it is calibrated (shown by <span style="color: green;">green</span> text). Calibrated teleporters will never turn you into a fly person.
===Time to Teleport===
Once you have set a target and calibrated the teleporter, it is time to do the teleporting. Double check before you proceed that the '''Current target''' is set correctly and the '''Calibration''' is done. Once you have checked and it is all fine, press the teleporter station to activate the hub. Then walk into the hub and you will find yourself magically at the new destination.
