#!/usr/bin/env python3 """ mm_client_check.py — exercise the Micromate read client against a real unit. **Read-only.** It sends POLL, SERIAL, state, monitor status, the setup walk and (optionally) one event download. It never writes, never erases, never starts or stops monitoring. Why it exists ------------- `micromate/{framing,protocol,client}.py` are verified against captures taken **over USB**, on **one firmware line** (`11.0CB`). Two things that cannot be verified that way: * **the modem path.** An RX55/RV55 bridges serial to TCP transparently, but it buffers up to ~1 s before forwarding, so a single logical response can arrive as many small reads. The client reads to frame completion rather than using idle-gap detection, which should be strictly more robust — but "should be" is the point of this script. * **the other firmware line.** `11.0BD` reports `flags = 0x03`, a shorter model string, and a `SUB 0x1C` block 4 bytes longer. Everything about that is currently inference from one 2026-09-23 sweep whose captures never landed in the repo. Run it over both paths and diff the two reports. Anything that differs beyond timings is a finding. Usage ----- # over the modem python3 bridges/mm_client_check.py 63.45.161.30:9034 # over USB / direct serial python3 bridges/mm_client_check.py /dev/ttyACM0 --baud 115200 # include one event download (still read-only) python3 bridges/mm_client_check.py --download ⚠ These modems bridge ONE TCP session to serial at a time. If THOR holds the unit, this will connect and then see nothing — that is contention, not a fault. `bridges/mm_probe.py` explains that case; disconnect THOR first.
