Confirmed 2026-04-01 against Blastware event report for BE11529 thump
event ("00:28:12 April 1, 2026", PVS 3.906 in/s).
models.py:
- Timestamp.from_waveform_record(): decode 9-byte format from 0C record
bytes[0-8]: [day][sub_code][month][year:2BE][?][hour][min][sec]
- Timestamp: add hour/minute/second optional fields; __str__ includes
time when available
- PeakValues: add peak_vector_sum field (confirmed fixed offset 87)
client.py:
- _decode_waveform_record_into: add timestamp decode from bytes[0:9]
- _extract_record_type: decode byte[1] (sub_code), not ASCII string
search; 0x10 → "Waveform", histogram TBD
- _extract_peak_floats: add PVS from offset 87 (IEEE 754 BE float32)
= √(T²+V²+L²) at max instantaneous vector moment
sfm/server.py:
- _serialise_timestamp: add hour/minute/second/day fields to JSON
- _serialise_peak_values: add peak_vector_sum to JSON
docs: update §7.7.5 and §8 with confirmed 9-byte timestamp layout,
PVS field, and byte[1] record type encoding; update command table;
close resolved open questions.

- _decode_serial_number: read from data[11:] not data[:8] — was returning
the LENGTH_ECHO byte (0x0A = '\n') instead of the serial string
- _extract_peak_floats: search for channel label strings ("Tran" etc) and
read float at label+6; old step-4 aligned scan was reading trigger levels
instead of PPV values
- get_events: add debug=False param; stashes raw 210-byte record on
Event._raw_record when True for field-layout inspection
- server /device/events: add ?debug=true query param; includes
raw_record_hex + raw_record_len in response when set
- models: add Event._raw_record optional bytes field
- bridges/tcp_serial_bridge.py: increase default boot_delay 2s → 8s to
cover MiniMate Plus cold-start time (unit wakes from RS-232 line
assertion but takes 5-10s to be ready for POLL_PROBE).
- sfm/server.py: add _run_with_retry() — on TCP connections only, retries
once on ProtocolError. Serial timeouts are not retried (usually a real
fault). Confirmed behaviour: unit wakes purely from RS-232 line voltage,
no software wake-up frame needed.
- minimateplus/transport.py: add TcpTransport — stdlib socket-based transport
with same interface as SerialTransport. Overrides read_until_idle() with
idle_gap=1.5s to absorb the modem's 1-second serial data forwarding buffer.
- minimateplus/client.py: make `port` param optional (default "") so
MiniMateClient works cleanly when a pre-built transport is injected.
- minimateplus/__init__.py: export SerialTransport and TcpTransport.
- sfm/server.py: add `host` / `tcp_port` query params to all device endpoints.
New _build_client() helper selects TCP or serial transport automatically.
OSError (connection refused, timeout) now returns HTTP 502.
- docs/instantel_protocol_reference.md: add changelog entry and full §14
(TCP/Modem Transport) documenting confirmed transparent passthrough, no ENQ
on connect, modem forwarding delay, call-up vs ACH modes, and hardware note
deprecating Raven X in favour of RV55/RX55.
Usage: GET /device/info?host=<modem_ip>&tcp_port=12345
