Product catalog and reported RF channel

GetProductCatalogAsync reads /app/common/core/productModel with the authenticated appCode 2 contract. Attributed models expose catalog version, distinct model/model-code variants, display name, product code, category, port count, hub/child metadata and data-point definitions. The returned collections are read-only. Raw default-parameter strings and data-point definition payloads are not public APIs.

The contract follows the pinned funkadelic source in protocol sources. Duplicate model/model-code pairs and malformed rows are rejected; different model-code variants of one model are retained. Catalog presence does not enable decoding or control for unsupported devices.

RainPointHub.RfChannel exposes the positive recich discovery value, otherwise unknown. The Windows Hub tools tab shows it read-only. The primary Python integration's channel selector exists, but its setter raises an unsupported-operation error; it is not a working upstream write implementation. The vendor app exposes a selector, whose write contract remains to be established. No RF channel was changed.

Twelve catalog NUnit cases pass on each desktop runtime. Read-only live checks on both targets returned 104 model variants including HTV345FRF; the test hub reported RF channel 1. Its installed firmware was 1.1.1041 and the timer's was 130. Catalog metadata is not hardware validation of those 104 variants.
