Revitalising unit

A Revitalising unit was an example of Cyber-Technology that allowed Cybermen to recharge their systems when their power levels ran low. It consisted of two components, the first resembled a large rectangular sarcophagus with an emblem mimicking the Cybermen's facial features on front. Inside was a cast big enough to accommodate the larger Cyber-Controller. The door was hinged at the right and opened outwards. The second component was a projection device, essentially an obelisk about seven to eight feet high with a trident shaped section on top; this section could pivot up and down and bombarded the first component with energy that revitalised the occupant.

Kaftan attempted to kill Victoria Waterfield with this machine, but was stopped when the Doctor intervened. (DW: The Tomb of the Cybermen)

How was Kaftan able to understand the Symbolic Logic controls that operate this machine (along with the hatch leading down to the Cyber-tombs), when Eric Klieg, her intellectual superior, was unable to do so?
