How did they tell the Colossus computer what to do?

The Colossus was setup for desired tests by the operator inserting plugs in sockets and setting switches. This meant the Colossus took some time for each setup to be made and checked for correctness before it could begin working on the cipher text, which was punched on paper tape and threaded around the pulleys of the "bedstead" so that a motor could move it past the photomultiplier tubes which read the cipher text at 5000 characters per second.It usually took several different tests for Colossus to extract enough analysis statistics to generate a possible group of wheel settings, which would then be tried on a Tunny machine to see if they produced readable plain text German for that message. If they produced gibberish the operator would have to begin all over again on the Colossus, selecting different tests in the hopes of generating a better possible group of wheel settings.
