Adds a new CapturingTransport wrapper in minimateplus.transport that mirrors
every TX/RX byte to two raw .bin files using the same on-wire format as
bridges/ach_mitm.py, so the resulting captures are byte-for-byte compatible
with the existing Blastware MITM captures and load directly in the Analyzer.
A new "Download" tab in seismo_lab.py lets the user connect to a device over
TCP or serial and run connect / list-keys / download-events while the wrapper
saves raw_bw_<ts>.bin (our TX) and raw_s3_<ts>.bin (device TX) into a
seismo_dl_<ts>[_<label>]/ session directory. On completion, the panel hands
both files to the Analyzer and switches tabs, mirroring the UX of the
existing Bridge capture flow.
- bridges/ach_bridge.py: transparent TCP bridge that MITMs the MiniMate Plus
call-home connection — forwards to real ACH server while logging all frames
to raw_client/raw_server .bin files compatible with parse_capture.py;
standalone capture mode for lab use without a real server
- bridges/serial_watch.py: RS-232 serial monitor with live S3 frame parsing;
taps the line between MiniMate and modem (RV50/RV55); captures raw bytes,
.log and .jsonl; --ack-ok mode auto-replies to AT commands; fixed fatal
indentation bug in the original that silently prevented any data capture
- seismo_lab.py: new "Serial Watch" fourth tab (SerialWatchPanel) wrapping
serial_watch.py functionality; COM port picker with refresh, baud config,
ack-ok toggle, colour-coded live frame log (teal frames / yellow ctrl /
blue AT), raw .bin capture auto-fed into Analyzer tab on stop

seismo_lab.py:
- Add ConsolePanel — third tab for direct device connections over serial
or TCP without the bridge subprocess
- Commands: POLL, Serial #, Full Config, Event Index (open/close per cmd)
- Colour-coded output: TX blue, RX raw teal, parsed green, errors red
- Save Log and Send to Analyzer buttons; auto-saves to bridges/captures/
- Queue/after(100) pattern — no performance impact
- Add SCRIPT_DIR to sys.path so minimateplus imports work from GUI
docs/instantel_protocol_reference.md:
- Confirm calibration year field at SUB FE payload offset 0x56–0x57
(uint16 BE): 0x07E7=2023 (BE18189), 0x07E9=2025 (BE11529)
- Document full Sierra Wireless RV50/RV55 required ACEmanager settings
(Quiet Mode, Data Forwarding Timeout, TCP Connect Response Delay, etc.)
- Correct §14.2: RV50/RV55 sends RING/CONNECT over TCP to caller even
with Quiet Mode on; parser handles by scanning for DLE+STX
- Confirm "Operating System" boot string capture via cold-start Console
- Resolve open question: 0x07E7 field = calibration year
