`read_blastware_file()` was still calling `_decode_samples_4ch_int16_le`
(the retracted int16-LE-interleaved hypothesis) on the body bytes,
producing ±32K noise on every channel of every BW file read from disk.
This was the path watcher-forwarded events take into the system
(via the import endpoint → save_imported_bw → read_blastware_file,
since the watcher doesn't ship A5 frames), so every .h5 sidecar
generated for a forwarded event has been wrong since the feature
shipped.
The fix is mechanical: pass the body bytes straight to
`waveform_codec.decode_waveform_v2()` and run the result through
`decoded_to_adc_counts()` for the 16x geo scaling. The body already
starts with the codec's exact 7-byte preamble `00 02 00 [Tran[0] BE]
[Tran[1] BE]` — confirmed by `body[:3].hex()` across all 9 fixture
events. No body-slice adjustment needed.
If the codec returns None (truncated/malformed file, synthetic test
input with no real waveform), fall back to empty channels with a log
warning. The rest of the event (timestamp, waveform_key, project
strings, sensor_location, peaks-from-samples=0) is still recoverable.
Verified against the bundled fixture corpus:
V70 Tran/Vert/Long 3328/3328 sample-sets match .TXT ground truth
within the 0.005 in/s display quantum, every row
6S0/RG0/AB0/470 (5-8-26) 3328/2304/1280/1280 samples; Vert PPVs
match BW's own report within 0.02 in/s
JQ0 3328 samples, Vert PPV 3.384 vs BW 3.465
SP0/SS0/SV0 (loud events) 3072–3328 samples; known walker
tail-truncation 1–7 samples per channel, samples reached are
byte-exact
Existing `test_read_blastware_file_round_trip` (synthetic empty event)
continues to pass thanks to the None-fallback. Codec verify scripts
(`analysis/verify_quiet_bundle.py`, `analysis/verify_full_decode.py`)
re-run unchanged.
Added two regression-lock tests in tests/test_event_file_io.py:
- test_read_blastware_file_decodes_via_codec[6 fixtures]
— verifies sample count + Vert PPV per fixture
- test_read_blastware_file_v70_samples_match_txt_truth
— verifies every one of V70's 3328 sample-sets across Tran/Vert/Long
matches the .TXT ground truth row-by-row within 0.003 in/s

The BW ACH ingest path was inserting every event with
record_type="Waveform" regardless of the actual type because
read_blastware_file() had `ev.record_type = "Waveform"` hardcoded, and
the live watcher-forward path parses files from a tmp path (suffix
".bw") that doesn't carry the original extension.
V10.72+ MiniMate Plus firmware encodes the event type as the last
character of the AB0T extension scheme (H=Histogram, W=Waveform,
M=Manual, E=Event, C=Combo). This change:
1. Adds derive_record_type_from_filename() public helper in
minimateplus/event_file_io.py
2. Uses it inside read_blastware_file() so direct callers (the
--dry-run path of scripts/import_bw.py, tests, ad-hoc scripts)
get correct types automatically
3. Overrides ev.record_type in WaveformStore.save_imported_bw()
using the ORIGINAL filename (source_path.name) — required
because the parser sees only the tmp file
Old S338 firmware (3-char extensions ending in `0`) and any
unrecognized suffix fall back to "Waveform".
Existing DB rows ingested before this fix are stuck with
record_type="Waveform" — a one-off SQL backfill would fix them
retroactively if desired. Terra-view's event modal also derives
client-side from the filename, so the UI already shows the correct
type for old events even without the backfill.
Version bumped to 0.16.1 in pyproject.toml, event_file_io.py
TOOL_VERSION, sfm/server.py FastAPI version, and CHANGELOG.md.

The "BW ACH ingestion" release. Paired with series3-watcher v1.5.0,
every Blastware ACH event (binary + _ASCII.TXT report) lands in
SeismoDb with device-authoritative peaks, project metadata, sensor
self-check, and ZC/Time-of-Peak data — without depending on the
still-undecoded waveform body codec.
Bumps pyproject.toml + minimateplus/event_file_io.py TOOL_VERSION
to 0.16.0. README banner + CHANGELOG entry summarise the work
that landed across commits cdfe4ad..f83993a on this branch.
Two compounding bugs caused forwarded events to land in the DB with
broken-codec peak values (~10 in/s saturation on every channel) and
no project info, even when the watcher correctly paired a BW ASCII
report with the binary.
Bug 1: save_imported_bw built the sidecar JSON with the report's
authoritative peak / project values via event_to_sidecar_dict(
bw_report=...), but never overlaid those onto the in-memory Event
that flows to db.insert_events(). So the DB row got peak_values
from read_blastware_file()._peaks_from_samples() — which runs the
still-undecoded waveform body codec assuming raw int16 LE and
produces ±32K-shaped noise (= ±10 in/s at Normal range) regardless
of the actual signal. The sidecar JSON had the truth but the DB
columns (which the webapp queries for fast filter/sort) lied.
Bug 2: insert_events' IntegrityError handler only refreshed the
filename/filesize/a5_pickle/sidecar columns when a duplicate
(serial, timestamp) was seen. Peak values, project info,
sample_rate, record_type stayed locked in at whatever the FIRST
insert wrote. So even after Bug 1 was fixed, the historical
events in the DB (already inserted with broken-codec peaks) would
never get their values corrected, because a re-forward would just
hit IntegrityError and skip the field refresh.
Fix 1 (minimateplus/event_file_io.py + sfm/waveform_store.py):
- New apply_report_to_event(event, report) helper folds the BW
report's device-authoritative fields onto the Event in-place:
per-channel PPV, peak vector sum, mic PSPL→psi, project /
client / operator / sensor_location, sample_rate, record_time.
- save_imported_bw() calls the helper right after parsing the
report. The Event that flows to insert_events() now carries
correct values.
Fix 2 (sfm/database.py):
- insert_events()'s IntegrityError UPDATE now refreshes every
device-authoritative column from the new data: tran_ppv,
vert_ppv, long_ppv, peak_vector_sum, mic_ppv, project, client,
operator, sensor_location, sample_rate, record_type, plus
the existing filename/filesize/a5_pickle/sidecar fields.
- Preserves: id, waveform_key, session_id, created_at (immutable
/ FK fields), and false_trigger (operator review state).
End-to-end simulation verified:
- Step 1: import without report → DB has ±10 in/s peaks, no project
- Step 2: re-import WITH report → upsert path fires, DB now has
device-authoritative 0.005 in/s peaks + sensor_location
- Step 3: operator sets false_trigger=1, re-import again → flag
preserved, peaks remain correct
For the user's situation: deleting the watcher state file forces a
re-forward of all events. Each re-forward now pairs with its
_ASCII.TXT, applies the report onto the Event, and the upsert
refreshes the DB row. No DB nuke needed.
Full SFM suite: 62 passed, 44 skipped.
Blastware's ACH writes a per-event ASCII report (.TXT) alongside each
event binary, containing the rich derived per-channel fields BW
computes (PPV, ZC Freq, Time of Peak, Peak Acceleration, Peak
Displacement, Peak Vector Sum + time, sensor self-check Pass/Fail,
monitor-log timestamps). None of this lives in the BW binary itself.
When the watcher daemon forwards both files to /db/import/blastware_file
in one multipart POST, we now:
- Pair binaries with their .TXT partners by filename match
- Parse the report into a structured BwAsciiReport
- Land the rich fields in a new top-level `bw_report` block of the
sidecar JSON
- Overlay the report's peaks/project_info/timestamp/sample_rate/
record_time/total_samples/pretrig_samples onto the canonical
sidecar fields (the report values are device-authoritative; the
BW-binary STRT-derived values had bugs like reading the 0x46
record-type marker as rectime)
This unblocks the monthly-summary review workflow — events become
sortable/filterable by peak, location, project, etc. — without
depending on the still-undecoded waveform body codec.
### Added
- **Layered event storage architecture.** Each event now lands as four
files in the per-serial waveform store, each with a clear role:
- `<filename>` — the Blastware-readable binary (BW file). Untouched.
- `<filename>.a5.pkl` — the raw 5A frames (regenerative source).
- `<filename>.h5` — clean per-channel waveform arrays in physical
units (in/s for geo, psi for mic) plus event metadata (HDF5 with
gzip compression). This is the canonical format for downstream
analysis tools.
- `<filename>.sfm.json` — the modern review/metadata sidecar (peaks,
project, source provenance, review state, extensions).
SQLite (`seismo_relay.db`) is the searchable index over all four.
- **Plot-ready waveform JSON (`sfm.plot.v1`).** The `/device/event/{idx}/waveform`
and `/db/events/{id}/waveform.json` endpoints now return samples in
physical units with explicit time-axis metadata, peak markers, and
per-channel unit hints — no more guessing the ADC-to-velocity scale
client-side. The webapp waveform viewer was rewritten to consume
this shape.
- **In-app waveform viewer accuracy fix.** The standalone SFM webapp
viewer was scaling geophone amplitudes by `geoAdcScale / 32767`
(≈ 6.206 / 32767), where `geoAdcScale = 6.206053` is the device's
*in/s per V* hardware constant — not the ADC-counts-to-velocity
factor. This silently scaled every plot ~38% too low for Normal-range
geophones (the correct full-scale is 10.0 in/s, or 1.25 in/s for
Sensitive). Conversion is now done server-side using the geo_range
from compliance config; the client just plots.
- New `sfm/event_hdf5.py` module: `write_event_hdf5()`,
`read_event_hdf5()`, plus a plot-JSON helper.
- Backfill script extended to also emit `.h5` for existing events.
### Dependencies
- Added `h5py>=3.10` and `numpy>=1.24` for the HDF5 storage layer.
- Added `python-multipart>=0.0.7` (required by FastAPI for the
`/db/import/blastware_file` endpoint introduced in this release).
