The Supportive Apparatus is the second puzzle in Western Delta in The Talos Principle 2. To solve the puzzle, start by picking up the Connector in the spawn area. Head to the deeper part of the room, then link the Connector to the red receivers through the window with metal bars.

Return to the starting area and stand on the red platform to disable the Energy Gate. The red beams should connect, and the Hexahedron should move to the center of the room.

Take the Connector and place it on top of the red platform so you can retrieve the Hexahedron. Replace the Connector with the Hexahedron, then take the Connector inside the room. Link it to the two red receivers on your left and right.
