+The first real 10-second HRS-filtered scan completed cleanly before the armband
+was positively identified. A subsequent expanded scan identified the real

+discovered `0x180D`, `0x2A37` and Battery Service, enabled notifications and
+received live BPM successfully. The observed payloads carried one raw RR
+interval, no sensor-contact field and no energy-expended field. A 12-second
+measurement window advanced from 43 to 56 notifications (13 notifications),
+confirming an approximately 1 Hz emission cadence. This closes the real-sensor
