Myst III: Exile Hints
How should I set the middle band?
1 of 3: It helps a lot if you set the bottom band before trying to set the middle one -- otherwise, you won't know what you're trying to connect to. I found that it's much easier to work from the bottom up instead of from the top down.
2 of 3: If you have set the bottom band, then you should find that one of the windows has just a single setting that connects the middle and bottom bands.
3 of 3: Go to #5 (just to the left of the stairs) and work on the middle band there until it lines up with the contacts on the bottom.
