Decoded the structural framing of the Blastware waveform body — the bytes between the 21-byte STRT record and the 26-byte file footer. The body is a sequence of tagged variable-length blocks, NOT raw int16 LE. Five tag types (10/20/00/30/40 NN) and their lengths are now confirmed against the 4-event May 2026 fixture bundle. Body splits cleanly into ~16 segments (for a 1280-sample event) separated by 40 02 segment headers carrying a monotonically incrementing uint32 LE counter at bytes [8:12]. What's done: - minimateplus/waveform_codec.py — block walker, segment splitter, segment header parser. decode_waveform_v2 is a stub returning None until the byte-to-sample mapping is solved; client.py is unchanged. - tests/test_waveform_codec.py — 31 tests covering block detection, lengths, contiguous-walk, segment splitting, segment-header parsing, and counter monotonicity. All pass. - tests/fixtures/decode-re-5-8-26/ — bundled fixtures (4 events, BW binary + Blastware ASCII export each). - docs/instantel_protocol_reference.md §7.6.1 — replaced retraction box with the verified structural decoding plus an explicit list of what's still open. What's still open: the per-byte mapping inside 10 NN / 20 NN blocks. 96 channel-permutation × nibble-order × sign-convention combinations were brute-force tested; none match BW's ASCII export to within ±1 ADC count. The codec is more elaborate than uniform 4-bit deltas — likely a hybrid variable-bit-width scheme with segment-anchor resync points. Next recommended step: capture an event with a known calibration tone to pin down magnitude scaling. Walker also bails out partway through event-b (open issue documented in both the module and the protocol reference).
