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
