Epiphany Sensor Suite

As shown in this drone footage, the Sensor Suite is a floor-mounted conglomeration of several information collection tools.

If only they were labeled in a way familiar to the new user!

At the viewer's left is a tall tower, approximately seven feet or two meters in vertical height, having a probable base diameter of perhaps twenty inches (depending on whether one includes the tubes wrapped sporadically around the outside. At a height from the floor of slightly more than three feet, the core of the tower ends. However, two more rings of tubing continue, significantly smaller in all dimensions, to form a cone-shaped collar around a support column.

Atop all of this is a large, thick disk. (Or, possibly, a solid wheel?) The front face of the disk has a complicated pattern of sixteen large segments surrounding sixteen narrow segments surrounding sixteen tiny segments surrounding a hub. The large segments are framed by crimson arrow-shaped indicators. The narrow segments contain the body of a crimson arrow. Overlain above the crimson arrows -- which are definitely exterior additions affixed into place on the original surface -- the disk sports three bright white metallic-looking rings, not evenly spaced when created and attached, but definitely concentric.

Inside the segmented surface of the disk, a bright bluish-white light illuminates one segment edge every 125 milliseconds. It makes a full circuit every 2 seconds.

Currently.

The lower surface next to the tower has a single lever, a pair of wheel-style valves each attached to a different rigid pipe, and another set of two levers. The levers can each occupy multiple positions. Nothing is labeled in a way that is intuitive to the new user. Perhaps a beginner's manual is available nearby?

In the center is a complex panel with gauges, small levers, at least one large lever on a disc-shaped gauge or clock face, and a five-by-five square array of flashing red lights.

Farthest from the tower are a digital readout screen, circular in shape but containing a rectangular gridwork, displaying some sort of sine graph. This readout screen has a viewer shield built into the top center of it, casting shade from any light source that would be coming through the wall. Below that is an independent lever mounted onto a disc-shaped protrusion from the main body. The disk has five large lights, all flashing red simultaneously with the five-by-five grid nearby.

Not described:

Various tubes and pipes, some of which may be polymer and some of which may be copper.

Strange panel in the lower body that looks like an exposed computer motherboard, but all a uniform ivory color.

Occasional stylized yellow-golden starbursts painted or integrated into the surface of the Sensor Suite casing, which itself may also be polymer or may be some unknown metallic alloy.

Currently unreachable means by which this Sensor Suite is connected to the floor (and possibly to the wall behind it).

Significance

Contextual clues suggest that this Sensor Suite is designed to detect something about the sparkling motes of light, and/or the occasional audio/radio signal leaks accompanying them, that appear intermittently in a specific geographical region.

The Epiphany Sensor Suite Gadget gains its provisional name from the day on which investigators (unafilliated with its creator) first discovered it: the Magi's Epiphany of 2010.

Rarity

Anyone who is not the designer nor a member of the assembly-and-installation team has probably never seen one of these before.

Possibly similar devices have been seen? This would not be out of place at many construction sites, or in the employees-only areas of a rural airport.
