Once you enter the blue barrier in the area, you will see the red sun on the right side of your screen. Walk towards the sun until you see a fan next to it. There are three fans, but only one can work at a time. This time, you will detach the one next to the sun and place it on the nearest square slot.

To attach the fan, rotate your game screen to the left, where you can see the green sun. Beside the sun is a square slot to place the detached fan. Drop the fan. As you do that, the blue barrier will be removed. Enter the newly opened room and take the Connector.

Now, head towards the red sun and climb up the stairs. Look back at the recently opened room to select the green laser and sun. After doing that, drop the Connector on the ground to make the connection. If the signal is green, you can move towards detaching the fan.

Take the fan and walk to the opposite side of the arena-like structure. Here, you will see a similar square slot where you must place the fan. Drop the item on the slot to remove the barrier. This newly opened spot will provide an RGB Converter.
