The Signal Redirector is a unique tool in *Atomfall* that you can't simply purchase or stumble upon. It's intricately linked to Dr. Diane Garrow, a former B.A.R.D scientist, and can only be found in a specific location. Start your journey by picking up the Lead from Wyndham Village, which points you toward Dr. Garrow's whereabouts. Your mission is to rescue her from the depths of the Protocol prison camp in Skethermoor.

Reaching Skethermoor is no small feat, as the area is heavily guarded by Protocol soldiers. To ease your infiltration, consider meeting Captain Grant Sims in Wyndham Village. By assisting him with tasks like recovering stolen items, you can gain favor with Protocol, making your journey smoother.

Once prepared, head to the Protocol prison camp on the southernmost border of Skethermoor. The entrance to the underground prison is at the end of the southern road, marked by a large green door. Navigate through multiple levels of the prison, evading or neutralizing guards and robots. Remember, you can disable B.A.R.D robots to collect their **Atomic Batteries**, essential for The Interchange.

Descend to the bottom level, past the dig site, where you'll find Dr. Garrow locked in a cell in the main room. To free her, you'll need the Signal Redirector, which is stored in the nearby Storage room on a shelf. Upon retrieving it, you'll earn the **‘Reverse the Polarity’ trophy/achievement**.

The Signal Redirector, crafted by Dr. Garrow, serves as a hacking tool that reroutes power within yellow junction boxes to different sources. This capability is invaluable for disabling security systems and unlocking storage rooms. When equipped, the Signal Redirector will alert you with an icon at the bottom of your screen when a hackable junction box is nearby. Follow the device's needle to locate the box, which will be highlighted when you're close enough.

To hack, simply select the 'Hack' button to reroute the power. If you need to reverse the hack, just 'hack' the junction box again. This tool is essential for freeing Dr. Garrow and advancing her storyline.
