Right after descent it is necessary to pay attention to the only lit corner in which on a lot of stuff the first box lies.
The second tool kit is in the building of old KBO. Through a breach in a wall the player gets on the first floor and follows through the hall with anomalies before ladder flight in the opposite direction of the building. Having risen by the second floor, the hero should be ready to reflect the attack of a byurer and to pass to the neighboring room where on the rack which is blocked up with boxes the tool kit for calibration lies.
