Comprehensive record of 2026-04-11/12 work extending the Dataforth Test
Datasheet Pipeline: discovery, implementation, deploy to AD2, full
backfill of 27,937 datasheets, post-deploy regex patch for QB plain-
decimal PASS lines, and repo commit 0dd3d82.
Includes credentials, infrastructure paths, commit reference, open
items (vault hygiene, rsync coverage), and accuracy-extraction
reference logic for future sessions.

Extends the Test Datasheet Pipeline on AD2:C:\Shares\testdatadb to
generate web-published datasheets for the SCMVAS-Mxxx (obsolete) and
SCMHVAS-Mxxxx (replacement) High Voltage Input Module product lines.
Both are tested either with the existing TESTHV3 software (production
VASLOG .DAT logs) or in Engineering with plain .txt output.
Key changes on AD2 (all deployed 2026-04-12 with dated backups):
- parsers/spec-reader.js: getSpecs() returns a `{_family:'SCMVAS',
_noSpecs:true}` sentinel for SCMVAS/SCMHVAS/VAS-M/HVAS-M model prefixes
so the export pipeline does not silently skip them for missing specs.
- templates/datasheet-exact.js: new Accuracy-only template branch
(generateSCMVASDatasheet + helpers) that mirrors the existing shipped
format byte-for-byte. Extraction regex covers both QuickBASIC STR$()
output formats: scientific-with-trailing-status-digit (98.4% of
records) and plain-decimal (1.6% of records above QB's threshold).
- parsers/vaslog-engtxt.js (new): parses the Engineering-Tested .txt
files in TS-3R\LOGS\VASLOG\VASLOG - Engineering Tested\. Filename SN
regex strips optional trailing 14-digit timestamp; in-file "SN:"
header is the authoritative source when the filename is malformed.
- database/import.js: LOG_TYPES grows a VASLOG_ENG entry with
subfolder + recursive flags. Pre-existing 7 log types keep their
implicit recursive=true behaviour (config.recursive !== false).
importFiles() routes VASLOG_ENG paths before the generic loop so a
VASLOG - Engineering Tested/*.txt path does not mis-dispatch to the
multiline parser.
- database/export-datasheets.js: VASLOG_ENG records are written
verbatim via fs.copyFileSync(source_file, For_Web/<SN>.TXT) for true
byte-level pass-through, with a graceful raw_data fallback when the
source file is no longer on disk.
Deploy outcome:
- 27,503 SCMVAS/SCMHVAS datasheets rendered (27,065 from scientific +
438 from plain-decimal PASS lines, post-patch rerun)
- 434 Engineering-Tested .txt files pass-through-copied to For_Web
- 0 errors across both batches
Repo layout added here:
- scmvas-hvas-research/: discovery artifacts (source .BAS, hvin.dat,
sample .DAT + .txt, binary-format notes, IMPLEMENTATION_PLAN.md)
- implementation/: staged final code + deploy helpers + local test
harness + per-step verification scripts
- backups/pre-deploy-20260412/: independent local snapshot of the 4
AD2 files replaced, pulled byte-for-byte before deploy
All helper scripts fetch the AD2 password at runtime from the SOPS
vault (clients/dataforth/ad2.sops.yaml). None of the committed files
contain the plaintext credential. Known vault-entry hygiene issue
(stale shell-escape backslash before the `!`) is documented in the
fetcher comments and stripped at read-time; flagged separately for
cleanup.

Problem: Data syncs to AD2 but import.js not importing to database
- Newest DB record stuck at 2026-01-19 (2 months stale)
- rsync transfers working (9.8MB at 06:30 & 07:15)
- import.js not being called or failing silently
Instructions for PC to diagnose and fix.

DEPLOY v4.1 fixes critical bug where ECHO >> redirects included
trailing space in MACHINE variable, causing "Too many parameters"
on all COPY commands with subdirectory paths. TS-4L data upload
confirmed working - 84 test files + 90 reports on NAS.

DOS 6.22 IF EXIST with wildcards on SMB1 network paths causes
"Bad command" and "Too many parameters" errors. Rewrote CTONW,
NWTOC, and AUTOEXEC to v4.0 with direct COPY/MD commands.
Pre-created all station LOGS directories on new D2TESTNAS.

Built Debian 13 VM replacement for aging ReadyNAS, deployed rsync-based
sync script to AD2, transferred data, completed IP cutover to 192.168.0.9.
Includes setup scripts, sync fixes, and comprehensive session logs.

ATESYNC.BAT v1.0:
- Boot-time orchestrator (ARCHBAT equivalent from TS-27)
- Calls CTONW (upload) then NWTOC (download)
- Creates machine folder structure if missing
- Accepts machine name as parameter or MACHINE env var
CTONW.BAT v3.1:
- Fixed upload path: now uploads to T:\%MACHINE%\LOGS\*LOG
- Added safeguards to prevent data overwriting:
- Refuses to run if MACHINE not set
- Refuses to run if T:\%MACHINE% folder missing
- Logs machine name, date/time, target path
- Uploads all 8 LOG folders plus Reports
Based on analysis of TS-27 golden example machine backup.
