# Controller B real-incubator disconnected-debugger checkpoint — 2026-09-08

Status: completed
Type: evidence-summary
Updated: 2026-09-08
Parent: CAMP-0030
Program Roadmap: PRM-0009
Project Map: MAP-0008
Next Action: Leave the controller operating without J-Link attachment; record any later runtime observations separately with their observation time and method.

## Operator checkpoint

At `2026-09-08T14:22:46-07:00`, the owner reported that the firmware is being allowed to run on a
real incubator and that J-Link has been physically disconnected from the controller.

The target is recorded as Controller B from the immediate operating context. The owner's phrase
"dev code" is preserved as the operational description. The last electronic identity evidence
captured before this disconnected interval identifies Controller B as assembly `1751219`, hardware
variant `1`, formerly attached through J-Link `69660123`, and running the exact frozen `v00.05.00`
Release candidate with Release S-record SHA-256
`C33CDA33C79A760BFE839503C18F5CFD4C614ADF0A00F41AF92360CF90EDB024`.

## Evidence boundary

- This checkpoint records an owner-reported physical and operating state; it does not claim a new
  electronic readback after J-Link was disconnected.
- The disconnected J-Link is an intentional isolation boundary. No debugger, mailbox, programming,
  reset, power, SD-card, USB, or other target interaction is authorized by this checkpoint.
- This is real-incubator runtime exposure, not by itself a completed thermal qualification or a
  release-verification result. Any such claim requires explicit acceptance criteria and captured
  observations.
- The controller should remain available to its normal firmware and logging behavior without a
  debugger connection. Later reconnection or intervention should be recorded as the end of this
  observation interval.

## Prior identity evidence

See `work/evidence/firmware-candidate-work5-a-b-qualification-20260908.md` for the manifest-bound
Controller B programming, readback, reboot, SD CID, and representative-sector-read evidence that
immediately precedes this owner-reported disconnected interval.
