'''[[Installation 05]]'s [[Control Room]]''', known to the [[Covenant]] as the '''Chamber of Consecration''',<ref>''Halo: Broken Circle'', p. 245</ref> was the site that controlled all of the installation's operations. The Control Room is located on an island off the coast of a larger island in the middle of a large sea. There is also a noticeable design difference from [[Installation 04]]'s control room, in there being a large, triple-tiered structure in the center of the facility. When the ring's firing sequence was initiated this structure would extend to its full height, with several floating platforms encircling it and a single beam projecting from deep within the control room in the chamber's center.<ref name="gj">''[[Halo 2]]'', campaign level, [[The Great Journey]]</ref>

==History==
{{main|Battle of Installation 05}}
[[File:HTMCC-H2A Councillor with Carbine.jpg|thumb|right|250px|A [[Sangheili High Councilor]] firing a [[Type-51 carbine]] at [[Jiralhanae]] in the control room.<ref name="newgj">''[[Halo 2: Anniversary]]'', campaign level, [[The Great Journey]]</ref>]]
After [[High Charity]]'s arrival at [[Installation 05]] and the redefinition of the [[Sangheili]]'s socio-political status following the [[Changing of the Guard]], many of the [[Sangheili Councilor]]s traveled to the Control Room in order to prepare it for the Halo's firing and the "Great Journey". However, the [[Jiralhanae Captain]] [[Melchus]] entered the Control Room with a heavily-armed [[Jiralhanae]] contingent and slaughtered the Councilors gathered there after a brief battle.<ref>''Halo: Broken Circle'', p. 245-252</ref> A small number of Councilors were taken prisoner in the nearby [[Bastion of the Brutes]].{{Ref/Reuse|gj}}

Prompted by the [[Prophet of Truth]], [[Tartarus]] brought [[343 Guilty Spark]] and [[Commander]] [[Miranda Keyes]] to the control room in order to activate the ring, initiating the [[Covenant religion|Great Journey]]. Before he could force Keyes to activate the panel, however, the [[Thel 'Vadam|Arbiter]] arrived, teaming up with [[Avery Junior Johnson|Sergeant Major Johnson]] and other [[Sangheili]] troops. 

Despite the Arbiter's attempt to convince Tartarus to change his mind, Tartarus forced the [[Activation Index|Index]] into the panel, activating the primary firing systems. A battle began between the Sangheili and the Jiralhanae, which ended after Tartarus and his troops died and Keyes deactivated the ring.{{Ref/Reuse|gj}}

==Trivia==
[[Bungie]] humorously referred to the multiple-leveled structure at the center of the control room as the "Birthday cake of doom".<ref>''[[Halo 3 Legendary Edition]]'' - Essentials, Disc Two - Halo 2 Cinematics Commentary</ref>
