"Five-five, five-three, five-six. Burn a firewall around it. Fry the whole level. Make the epicenter five-two."
―The prison commander gives orders[1]

A command center was the command center and prison-wide control room for a Imperial factory facility part of the Narkina 5 Prison Complex.[1]

Description

"I am speaking to you from the command center on Level Eight."
―Kino Loy[1]

The command center was staffed by the commander in charge of the particular prison cylinder and two Imperial technicians and was equipped with three white colored duty posts which controlled key prison-wide functions such as the activation or deactivation of the Tunqstoid steel floors and the isolation of specific levels. The commander's duty post was accessible only to him and controlled the most sensitive prison functions, including the hydroelectric generator floodgates which provided power to the entire cylinder and the prison-wide PA system. The duty posts were surrounded by large screens which displayed the prisoners' location within the complex as yellow dots superimposed on detailed black and white blueprints of the facility.[1]

History

In 5 BBY,[2] a command center was attacked and saw one of its command techs killed during the prisoner uprising in one of the cylinders. Kino Loy and Cassian Jeron Andor, two of the prisoners incarcerated in the facility used the controls located in the room to deactivate the floors and open all seals and doors in the prison to liberate their fellow inmates.[1]

As "One Way Out" takes place between "Kassa" and "Daughter of Ferrix", it must also take place in 5 BBY.
