# Hardware outage fixtures These captures came from the assembled XIAO ESP32-C3 prototype. A temporary validation build made the packet writer report failure while acquisition kept running; that failure injection was removed before the production firmware was built and flashed. The files contain only complete, CRC-valid `TRK1` frames. - `forced_outage_3s.trk` — SHA-256 `01482816cdaa668e4681c33c8baa1df331d733b9bbcbc4f448ece25e88185ad6`. It contains 2,144 contiguous samples, sequences 0 through 2,143, with no reported drops, overruns, or timestamp saturation. - `forced_outage_7s.trk` — SHA-256 `2ea8a5742944bdebc13bec2ccdbceba75f0bb71e48c856b0f86285878e190cd3`. It contains 1,840 delivered samples. The sole sequence gap is 511 to 650: 138 samples were dropped after the 512-entry queue filled, the cumulative drop count reached 138, and the corresponding timestamp delta is exactly 1,390,000 us. `tests/test_trikke_protocol.py` verifies the hashes, parses the captures in fragmented chunks, and asserts these signatures so the hardware evidence remains executable regression data. To inspect either file manually: ```sh python3 tools/decode_binary.py tests/fixtures/forced_outage_3s.trk /tmp/outage.csv ```
