feat: Add monitoring functionality to MiniMate protocol and web interface
- Introduced new SUBs for monitoring status, start, and stop commands in protocol.py. - Implemented read_monitor_status, start_monitoring, and stop_monitoring methods in MiniMateProtocol class. - Added new API endpoints for monitoring status retrieval and control in server.py. - Enhanced the web application with a monitoring panel, including battery and memory status display. - Created a new Python script to parse SUB 0x1C response frames for monitoring status. - Documented the monitoring status response format and field locations in markdown and text files.

# SUB 0x1C — Monitoring Status Response Format
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
## Overview
|
||||
|
||||
SUB 0x1C is a monitoring status query that returns different sized responses depending on device state:
|
||||
|
||||
- **IDLE/OFF (unit not monitoring):** 58-byte response with detailed fields
|
||||
- **MONITORING/ON (unit actively monitoring):** 12-byte response with condensed format
|
||||
|
||||
The key fields CONFIRMED from wire capture analysis:
|
||||
|
||||
| Field | Offset | Format | Value (Idle) | Notes |
|
||||
|-------|--------|--------|-------------|-------|
|
||||
| **Monitor Mode** | [00] | uint8 | 0x2c (OFF) | 0x2c = Idle, 0x00 = Monitoring |
|
||||
| **Day** | [0d] | uint8 | 0x08 | 1–31 |
|
||||
| **Hour** | [0e] | uint8 | 0x10 | 0–23 (16 = 4 PM) |
|
||||
| **Month** | [0f] | uint8 | 0x04 | 1–12 (April) |
|
||||
| **Year** | [10:12] | uint16 BE | 0x07ea | 2026 |
|
||||
| **Minute** | [12] | uint8 | 0x00 | 0–59 |
|
||||
| **Second** | [13] | uint8 | 0x01 | 0–59 (but this seems off) |
|
||||
| **Battery Voltage** | [2f:31] | uint16 BE, ÷100 | 0x02a8 | 680 → 6.80V |
|
||||
| **Memory Total** | [31:35] | uint32 BE | 0x000efff2 | 983,026 bytes = 960.0 KB |
|
||||
| **Memory Free** | [35:39] | uint32 BE | 0x000e9e52 | 958,034 bytes = 935.6 KB |

|

```
|
||||
|
||||
### Field Breakdown
|
||||
|
||||
**[00:01] = Monitor Mode**
|
||||
```
|
||||
Offset 00: 0x2c = 44 (decimal)
|
||||
Interpretation: Unit is NOT currently monitoring (idle/off state)
|
||||
Counter-example in monitoring frame: 0x00 (ON state)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**[01:0d] = Padding/Reserved (12 bytes of zeros)**
|
||||
```
|
||||
Offsets 01-0c: all 0x00
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**[0d:12] = Timestamp (5 bytes)**
|
||||
```
|
||||
Offset 0d: 0x08 = 8 → DAY
|
||||
Offset 0e: 0x10 = 16 → HOUR (4 PM)
|
||||
Offset 0f: 0x04 = 4 → MONTH (April)
|
||||
Offset 10-11: 0x07ea → YEAR (big-endian: 2026)
|
||||
= 2026-04-08, 16:??:??
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**[12:14] = Time (minute/second, ambiguous)**
|
||||
```
|
||||
Offset 12: 0x00 = 0 → Likely MINUTE
|
||||
Offset 13: 0x01 = 1 → Likely SECOND
|
||||
But this seems too low; may be wrong interpretation
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**[14:16] = Unknown (2 bytes)**
|
||||
```
|
||||
Offset 14: 0x3b = 59 (decimal) - could be seconds?
|
||||
Offset 15: 0x2d = 45 (decimal)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**[16:2f] = Unknown/Filler (25 bytes)**
|
||||
```
|
||||
Contains various device-specific configuration or state bytes.
|
||||
Some patterns suggest repeating data structures (e.g., 01 01 07 cb appears twice).
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**[2f:31] = Battery Voltage (2 bytes, uint16 BE, divide by 100)**
|
||||
```
|
||||
Offset 2f-30: 0x02a8
|
||||
= 680 (decimal)
|
||||
÷ 100 = 6.80 volts
|
||||
Expected: ~6.8V ✓ CONFIRMED
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**[31:35] = Memory Total (4 bytes, uint32 BE)**
|
||||
```
|
||||
Offset 31-34: 0x000efff2
|
||||
= 983,026 (decimal, bytes)
|
||||
÷ 1024 = 960.0 KB ✓ CONFIRMED
|
||||
(Device spec: ~960 KB)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**[35:39] = Memory Free (4 bytes, uint32 BE)**
|
||||
```
|
||||
Offset 35-38: 0x000e9e52
|
||||
= 958,034 (decimal, bytes)
|
||||
÷ 1024 = 935.6 KB ✓ CONFIRMED
|
||||
(Expected: ~936 KB)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**[39:3a] = Trailing byte**
|
||||
```
|
||||
Offset 39: 0xef = 239
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Monitoring Frame (12 bytes) — Condensed Response
|
||||
|
||||
When the unit is actively monitoring, the response shrinks to 12 bytes:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
00: 00 00 00 00 2c 00 00 00 00 00 00 1f ....,.......
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Changes from Idle
|
||||
|
||||
| Field | Idle Frame | Monitoring Frame | Note |
|
||||
|-------|------------|------------------|------|
|
||||
| Monitor Mode | [00] = 0x2c | [04] = 0x2c → may shift or invert | Moved to offset [04]? |
|
||||
| Size | 58 bytes | 12 bytes | Truncated response; only status, no detail |
|
||||
| [0b] | varies | 0x1f | New/different byte at end |
|
||||
|
||||
**Interpretation:**
|
||||
- The response layout changes based on monitoring state
|
||||
- In monitoring mode, many detailed fields are suppressed
|
||||
- The monitor_mode indicator may move or encode differently
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Date/Time Interpretation
|
||||
|
||||
The timestamp at [0d:12] uses this layout (confirmed from capture):
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
[0d] = DAY (1–31) = 0x08 = 8
|
||||
[0e] = HOUR (0–23) = 0x10 = 16 (4 PM)
|
||||
[0f] = MONTH (1–12) = 0x04 = 4 (April)
|
||||
[10:12] = YEAR (uint16 BE) = 0x07ea = 2026
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Timestamp extracted:** 2026-04-08 16:??:??
|
||||
|
||||
Minutes and seconds are less clear:
|
||||
- [12] = 0x00 → possibly minute
|
||||
- [13] = 0x01 → possibly second (but unusually low)
|
||||
- [14] = 0x3b = 59 (redundant second marker?)
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Voltage Encoding
|
||||
|
||||
Battery voltage is stored as **uint16 big-endian, divide by 100:**
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
[2f:31] = 0x02a8
|
||||
Raw value: 680
|
||||
Voltage: 680 / 100 = 6.80 V
|
||||
Expected: ~6.8V ✓
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Other attempted decodings (all ruled out):
|
||||
- `÷1000`: 0.680V (too low)
|
||||
- `÷10`: 68V (too high)
|
||||
- float32 BE/LE: no match in range 6–8V
|
||||
- Fixed-point: no other range matched
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Memory Encoding
|
||||
|
||||
Both fields use **uint32 big-endian, in bytes:**
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Memory Total:
|
||||
[31:35] = 0x000efff2 = 983,026 bytes = 960.0 KB
|
||||
|
||||
Memory Free:
|
||||
[35:39] = 0x000e9e52 = 958,034 bytes = 935.6 KB
|
||||
|
||||
Sanity check: free < total ✓
|
||||
Free percentage: 935.6 / 960.0 = 97.5% (plausible)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Monitor Mode Field Transitions
|
||||
|
||||
**Idle/OFF State:**
|
||||
```
|
||||
[00] = 0x2c (decimal 44)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Monitoring/ON State (response shrinks to 12 bytes):**
|
||||
```
|
||||
Byte layout shifts; [04] carries 0x2c or another value
|
||||
Possible interpretation: the byte moves, or encoding inverts
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Confirmed behavior:**
|
||||
- When idle: byte [00] = 0x2c, response is 58 bytes
|
||||
- When monitoring: byte position shifts to [04], response is 12 bytes
|
||||
- Value 0x2c appears to mean "OFF" or "not actively streaming"
|
||||
- Value 0x00 appears to mean "ON" or "actively streaming"
|
||||

## Unknown Fields (for future analysis)
|
||||
|
||||
The following regions have been observed but their purpose is unclear:
|
||||
|
||||
| Range | Hex (Idle) | Notes |
|
||||
|-------|----------|-------|
|
||||
| [01:0d] | all 0x00 | Padding or reserved? |
|
||||
| [14:16] | 3b 2d | 59, 45 — possibly countdown timers or other state |
|
||||
| [16:2f] | mixed | Appears to contain device configuration snapshots; pattern repeats suggest sub-structures (e.g., trigger levels, calibration dates) |
|
||||

## Wire Frame Structure (S3 Format)
|
||||
|
||||
Raw S3 response for SUB 0x1C (response SUB = 0xE3):

```
|

|

Destuffed payload:

[1] flags = 0x10
|

[2] SUB = 0xE3 (response)
|
||||
[3] PAGE_HI = 0x00
|
||||
[4] PAGE_LO = 0x00
|

[5+] data = 58 or 12 bytes (depending on mode)

|

## Next Steps
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Verify minute/second fields** — Compare against multiple captures to confirm [12:14] layout
|
||||
2. **Decode unknown region [16:2f]** — Likely contains trigger levels, calibration dates, alarm thresholds
|
||||
3. **Monitoring mode byte position** — Confirm whether it truly moves to [04] in the monitoring response or if response layout is completely different
|
||||
4. **Min/max voltage limits** — Check if voltage ever deviates from 6.8V to validate encoding
|
||||
5. **Memory dynamics** — Track total/free across sessions to understand flash layout
