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.
The four operator-supplied note fields in BW's Compliance Setup →
Notes tab (Project / Client / User Name / Seis Loc) have
USER-EDITABLE LABELS — an operator can rename them in BW's UI to
"Building:", "Site Address:", "Inspector:", or anything else, and
the ASCII export writes those literal labels verbatim. The
previous label-normalisation map approach (just added in commit
6a7e8c6) was fragile: it could only match label spellings we'd
enumerated in advance. An operator using "Site:" instead of
"Seis Loc:" would have their sensor location silently dropped.
What IS reliable: BW always writes the 4 user-notes lines
contiguously, in the same order, between the "Units :" line and
the "Geo Range :" line of the export. So parse them by POSITION:
position 1 → project
position 2 → client
position 3 → operator
position 4 → sensor_location
The original labels BW wrote are preserved in a new
`BwAsciiReport.user_note_labels` dict (canonical slot → literal
label string) so terra-view can render them as the operator named
them.
Removes the `_OPERATOR_LABEL_MAP` / `_normalise_label_for_lookup`
helpers and the elif-by-normalised-label branch in `parse_report`.
Replaces with a small state machine that flips on the "Units" line
and flips off on the "Geo Range" line.
Tests:
- Default-label fixtures (waveform + histogram) still populate
correctly, with operator's labels captured.
- Synthetic custom-labelled exports ("Building:" / "Site Address:" /
etc.) populate the right slots by position.
- Histogram-specific "Seis. Location:" works.
- Lines outside the Units→Geo Range range are ignored even if
they look like user notes (defensive against malformed exports).
- Partial blocks (fewer than 4 lines) leave later slots None.
- Extra lines beyond 4 are dropped (5th slot doesn't exist).
26 tests in test_bw_ascii_report.py (was 33; net drop reflects
parametrised label tests collapsed into 6 focused position tests).
Full SFM suite: 62 passed, 44 skipped.
Pairs with series3-watcher v1.5.0 which fixes the filename pairing
so the report reaches this parser in the first place.
Blastware writes the operator-supplied fields with different label
spellings across firmware versions and recording modes — most
notably "Seis. Location" on histogram exports vs "Seis Loc:" on
waveform exports. Previous parser only matched the latter, so
every histogram event silently lost its sensor_location field.
Replace the four hardcoded `key.rstrip(":") == "X"` branches with
a single `_OPERATOR_LABEL_MAP` dispatch table keyed by normalised
label (lowercase, trailing colon/period stripped, internal
whitespace collapsed). Adds these variants on day 1:
project: "Project:" / "Project"
client: "Client:" / "Client"
operator: "User Name:" / "User Name"
sensor_location: "Seis Loc:" / "Seis. Location" / "Seis Location"
/ "Sensor Location" / "Seis Loc"
To absorb future BW label drift, add a one-line dict entry — no
new elif branch.
14 new tests cover:
- Each label variant routes to the correct field (parametrised)
- Case-insensitive matching ("seis loc" / "SEIS LOC" / "SeIs LoC")
- Whitespace-collapse ("Seis Loc" with double-space)
- End-to-end parse of a real histogram fixture from
example-events/histogram/ — sensor_location ('Loc #1 - 2652 Hepner...')
populates correctly even though the file uses "Seis. Location"
Total bw_ascii_report tests: 19 → 33. Full SFM suite still green
(69 passed, 44 skipped — pre-existing skips for h5py-dep tests).
Pairs with series3-watcher v1.5.4 (which fixes the filename pairing
so histograms actually reach this parser in the first place).
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).
- Added `waveform_key` and `event_timestamp` columns to `CachedEvent` and `CachedWaveform` for integrity verification.
- Implemented logic to flush the cache when a mismatch in (waveform_key, event_timestamp) is detected during event and waveform updates.
- Enhanced `set_events` and `set_waveform` methods to check for mismatches and trigger cache eviction as necessary.
- Introduced a new `LiveCache` class to manage in-memory caching of live device data, separating it from the server logic for better testability.
- Added tests to verify the correctness of cache invalidation logic, particularly for post-erase key reuse scenarios.
- Updated web application to include a "Force refresh" toggle, allowing users to bypass the cache and re-fetch data from the device.
test: add regression tests for v0.14.x SUB 5A protocol fixes
refactor(logging): change warning logs to debug for less verbosity in write_blastware_file
## v0.13.0 — 2026-05-01
### Fixed
- **SUB 5A bulk waveform stream — over-read bug for events ≥ 2 sec.**
`read_bulk_waveform_stream` was walking the chunk counter past the actual
end of the event, picking up post-event circular-buffer garbage that
corrupted reconstructed Blastware files for any waveform > ~1 sec. The
loop now extracts the event's `end_offset` from the STRT record at
`data[23:27]` of the probe response and stops the chunk walk when the next
counter would step past it. Verified against three BW MITM captures
(4-27-26 + 5-1-26): 2-sec event drops from 37 over-read chunks to 7
bounded chunks; 3-sec drops to 9; non-zero-start "event 2" drops to 9.
### Added
- `framing.bulk_waveform_term_v2(key4, end_offset, last_chunk_counter)` —
computes the corrected SUB 5A TERM frame's `(offset_word, params)` per the
formula confirmed across all 3 BW captures. Not yet wired into
`read_bulk_waveform_stream` (the legacy TERM is still used to preserve the
existing `blastware_file.write_blastware_file` frame-structure expectations);
available for the next iteration that switches to BW's 0x0200 chunk step.
- `framing.parse_strt_end_offset(a5_data)` — extracts the event-end pointer
from the STRT record in an A5 response payload.
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.
Frame 0 is always the probe; frames 1+ are always data (waveform ADC
chunks, compliance config, compliance continuation). Gating on
classify_frame() at fi>0 produces false positives: ADC binary data
can coincidentally contain b"STRT\xff\xfe", causing frames 1 and 5
to be silently dropped from the body (confirmed from live capture on
event key=01110000). Remove all type-based filtering; include every
frame unconditionally with the standard index-based skip amounts.
Add classify_frame() which categorises each A5 frame by content:
terminator — page_key == 0x0000
probe_or_strt — contains b"STRT"
metadata — contains compliance-config ASCII markers
(Project:, Client:, Standard Recording Setup, …)
waveform — binary-heavy (< 20% printable ASCII), i.e. raw ADC data
unknown — fallback
Update write_blastware_file() body loop: frame 0 (probe) is still
always processed; frames 1+ are only included when classify_frame
returns "waveform". Metadata frames (compliance config block with
Project:/Client:/etc.) and any stray STRT-bearing frames are skipped
with a warning/debug log. Terminator frame handling is unchanged.
Adds temporary print() diagnostics so each frame's classification is
visible in the server log to aid debugging.

For 2-second events at 1024 sps the "Project:" metadata frame appears
beyond chunk 32 (the old default cap), causing the safety limit to be
hit and ~34 KB of waveform data to be downloaded instead of stopping
at the metadata frame. Raising max_chunks to 128 ensures
stop_after_metadata=True can locate the metadata frame for record
times up to ~4 seconds.

- Added `CallHomeConfig` model to represent the Auto Call Home settings.
- Introduced methods in `MiniMateClient` for reading (`get_call_home_config`) and writing (`set_call_home_config`) the call home configuration.
- Updated `MiniMateProtocol` with new commands for call home operations (SUB 0x2C for read, SUB 0x7E for write, and SUB 0x7F for confirm).
- Created API endpoints for retrieving and updating call home settings in the server.
- Enhanced the web interface with a new "Call Home" tab for user interaction with call home settings.
- Implemented JavaScript functions for reading and writing call home configurations from the web app.
Add full decode pipeline for 0x2C partial records from the device's event
list, representing continuous monitoring intervals where no threshold was
crossed. These records appear interleaved with full triggered events in the
browse walk and were previously ignored.
minimateplus/models.py
- Add MonitorLogEntry dataclass: key, start_time, stop_time, serial,
geo_threshold_ips, raw_header, duration_seconds property
minimateplus/protocol.py
- read_waveform_header() now returns (data_rsp.data, length) — full payload
including the record-type byte at position 0 — instead of the sliced header.
Callers that need the old slice use raw_data[11:11+length] as before.
minimateplus/client.py
- Add _decode_0a_partial_header(): auto-detects 9-byte (sub_code=0x10) vs
10-byte (sub_code=0x03) timestamp format, handles 1-byte inter-timestamp
gap, extracts serial via BE anchor and geo threshold via Geo: anchor.
- Add get_monitor_log_entries(skip_keys=None): browse walk (1E → 0A → 1F),
decodes partial records, skips full records and already-seen keys.
minimateplus/__init__.py
- Export MonitorLogEntry
bridges/ach_server.py
- After get_events(), call get_monitor_log_entries(skip_keys=seen_keys) and
save new entries to monitor_log.json in the session directory.
- Add _monitor_log_entry_to_dict() helper.
- Include monitor log keys in downloaded_keys for state persistence.
CLAUDE.md / CHANGELOG.md
- Document 0x2C partial record layout (timestamp format, ASCII metadata
region, 1-byte gap edge case) confirmed from 4-11-26 MITM capture.
- Version bump to v0.10.0; update What's next.

_decode_event_count: read uint16 BE at offset 10 (confirmed 2026-04-10 from
live BE11529 event index — data[10:12]=0x0006=6, matches device LCD).
Previous uint32 at offset 3 always returned 1 regardless of event count.
ach_server.py: use device_info.event_count (already fetched during connect())
instead of calling count_events() separately. This saves 2*N round-trips and
avoids the 1F linked-list walk which was overcounting on some devices.
count_events() kept as fallback when connect() is skipped (--events-only).

- Replace all Unicode arrows/checkmarks (-> [OK] [FAIL]) in ach_server.py
and client.py log calls — Windows cp1252 console can't encode them
- Fix DeviceInfo attribute: serial_number -> serial
- Fix _device_info_to_dict key: serial_number -> serial
- Demote count_events 1E/1F per-key log lines from WARNING to DEBUG
(they were flooding the console on devices with many stored events)
- FileHandler now opens with encoding='utf-8' so session log files
can hold any characters without codec errors
