Fallout 4 Message Board  

Found the mats for the Signal Interceptor. Only problem cannot figure out, is how do I make them? There are no workshop plans for them. Not sure if have enough.

Found 8 Military-grade circut boards
Found 4 Biometric Scanners
Found 1 Sensor Module (after 5 hours of going from place to place).

I've got everything built and all fired up (blue sparking down from the emitter.....It looks like I just need to step on the pad, but nothing happens.........anybody can help the old guy here??????

You have to make sure every piece is connected by wires as it all needs to be in the same loop. I used a single electrical pole in the middle of all of them to make the connections. I hope that helps you.

Make sure after you've completed building it, you talk to the "Engineer" for whichever faction you've decided to side with.

They'll tell you when it's ready for you to go.

Once that happens, you just need to step onto the pad in the middle.

Also, make sure you've built it correctly.
Even though you build 4 separate items, you end up with only 3 in the end since you need to snap the large tripod onto the smaller triangular base, with the Control panel and Dish off to the sides. All connected to the same power grid. (Not sure if it's necessary or not but I wired them all to each other as well.)

OK.....everything is lit up and running. Nobody is telling me to step on the pad. Who should I look for in the brotherhood of steel?

Having the same problem with this quest here.

Some people have acted a bit superstitiously with this quest claiming you must do things in a particular order, but before now I've thrown the teleporter together in any order with 30+ power and it just worked (regardless of factions, etc). It appears that since the 1.3 patch went on, the quest no longer triggers correctly (i.e. when your scientist tells you to step on the platform). It's as if the game no longer realises the teleporter is "powered up" (which it is, you can tell by the noise and sparks coming out of it!)

So, unfortunately it looks like a new bug introduced in 1.3.

Does anyone have a list of the setstage commands for this quest? I can't find them anywhere. At least then people could continue their games (on PC, anyway)

Having a similar problem except I chose to do it with the railroad faction, i'm building by the old gas station, I scrapped most everything the first time I came through on my way to diamond city got everything connected to the big generators but I can't get the teleporter pad under the tower, is that what I'm missing? I'm a little tried everything I can think of for now, consulted both the printed guide and a video online and none or them are clear on what to do exactly, Please Help!

NM, I got it turns out the teleport pad or Stabilized Reflector platform as they call it in the game was the problem after all, it needs to be directly under the beam emitter.
