You'll need to open that box pretty soon.... look closely at the innards of
the clock. Specifically [ROT13] rknzvar gur jrvtugf vaqvivqhnyyl; vs lbh

You say you can operate the lift, but have you gone very far from it? If
not, [ROT13] gura lbh'yy arrq gb ernq gur qrfpevcgvba irel pnershyyl sbe n
pyhr nf gb jul vg'f qnex... lbh fubhyq nyernql unir gur zrnaf gb znxr vg

See if this gets you further...

Okay, just found out that the box does in fact open as soon as you set the
weights inside the clock. (Thought setting the weights was for something
else, but forgot what the result was.)

The combination is shown in the chart (9, 1, 3), or you can check the
walkthrough to see the combination.

What chart? The gematria? I've done everything now. Yet, nothing happens.

I'd probably check the walkthrough - since something was missed, it should
provide that missing instruction

To access the walkthrough, type in "walkthrough" at the prompt. It simply
dumps the list of required commands to the output, thus it will spoil the
fun.

The Gematria is the chart that converts the symbols to numbers; if you
haven't got it [ROT13] lbh arrq gb ybbx va gur obbxf va gur obbxpnfr
[ROT13].

Once you've got it, [ROT13] lbh arrq gb genafyngr gur ahzoref 9,1,3 (sebz
gur abgpurf) vagb gur flzobyf naq frg gur jrvtugf nppbeqvatyl. Gur obk
fubhyq gura bcra naq erirny gur Beo. [ROT13]
