I'm doing something wrong, code updated on both Scale and Console. Pull tagged spool from AMS, did not auto populate into staging, so scanned spool on console (also tried scale) and spool populates properly into staging. Put spool on scale, wait for weight to stabilize, light turns blue, press left button, get "Technical Error. Failed to update filament weight." I'm guessing I'm missing a step. Do I need to re-register/encode the spool as new? Please note that when I installed the software, I did not erase the two devices, hoping to keep the spool weights and custom filaments. LMK if I need to. Going to spoolease.local/inventory gives me an empty inventory. |

I added an update
Note: You need to erase the store folder on the SD Card since I changed the db structure a bit |

I released alpha3 at the same location to upgrade (don't erase when flashing). I decided to add a numeric running id as well that I believe would be helpful for multiple reasons, for now, until formal release I don't support backwards compatibility so need to remove the store before use. |

Released Including:
On The new add/edit are not fully mobile ready though usable, this will be taken care of in the future. Important - be aware that store format will still change so don’t invest too much work on loading information in as it might not be backwards compatible. That’s why it it in alpha/testing. |

Released This include meaningful changes that are prone to bugs:
This last change is a major improvement and provides a great flow IMO from buying a spool, loading the spool into SpoolEase inventory, then later on encoding and using it. It is also technically a bit complex and involves many use cases (like tag loaded, then unloaded, then re-encoded, etc.). The ID should follow the tag everywhere. There are probably bugs and more complex use cases I didn't think about, happy if you can think of those and let me know. I also hope/think the DB format has not stabilized, but can't guarantee yet. |

Released The only change is the filtering out of the load-cell data that comes up once in a while and turns on the screen. Nothing major, it just annoyed me so took care of that. |

Released It includes a major new feature (at least complexity wise). If you'd like to test this new feature, please read everything carefully, especially the "IMPORTANT" section regarding the backup. I've just released an early (not final) alpha version with a major new feature: UI

Great project :-) I have version 0.4.0 - alpha 38. The PA(K) parameter is not displayed on the console when I click on the AMS position. It is only displayed on the external position. I am talking about the detail, I can see PA(K) on the home screen. Just to add, I have two AMS and it is the same on both. |

🚀 Released SpoolEase alpha50 for both Console and Scale! This version focuses on easing the complexity of encoding as SpoolEase has eveolved over time and what was good in the past doesn't fit best now with the inclusion of inventory, better encode web app, and more. 👉 Flashing is in the usual place. ✨ Also in this release:

After some hesitations i jumped the bandwagon and ordered the parts for the scale. The assembly went very well but I had some problems with flashing, the process kept hanging on "preparing instalation". |

Is there any news on the development? My version console alpha 77 and scale alpha 51 are working fine except the fact that the scale often disconnects, even with the scale and console placed ~1.5 meter distance from each other. |

Yes, lots of updates — time to share them here. Version 0.5 (currently a pre-release) replaces the 0.4 alpha. It’s a major update — backward compatible but with a new approach (encoding the tags is not required any more, just optional for a certain feature), added features, improvements, and bug fixes. (Among the fixes is better communication between Scale and Console under not best WiFi conditions. It’s still new, so feedback will show if it fully resolves previous issues.) Important: Review the documentation BEFORE upgrading and perform the folders copy as described there: Read it fully, then go through the updated docs to understand the new flow. Flashing can be done as usual here: Be sure to flash both Console and Scale. |

I updated OTA the console to 0.5.0-b.16, that went all well, but when I tried to update the scale in Chrome this didn't work anymore, there was no longer u pop-up to choose the USB port. Updating via Edge works fine. |

Considering getting involved with your project. This really looks promising! Any ideas why this has not been picked up by more people yet being there is not a good inventory system out there? |

I just want to say that since the last update(s) to 0.5.0-b.16 for the console and 0.5.0-b.7 for the scale I didn't have any disconnects so far. |

Unfortunately, I cheered too soon. The scale now refuses to connect at all. The console doesn't display a message that the scale is disconnected, but when I look under 2 Scale(s) information, I see the following: So the system recognizes the scale but won't connect. |

📢 New Feature: Spool Inventory Management
I’ve just finished the first version of Spool Inventory Management — a major enhancement to the SpoolEase system that makes managing filament spools seamless and intuitive.
A few pictures
🚀 Highlights
Automatic spool tracking
SpoolEase now automatically adds/updates spool info in its internal database whenever you scan or encode a tag — no manual entry needed.
Weight tracking made easy
Keep spool weight updated to track how much is left or used, using one of the following methods:
Web UI for inventory
Browse, filter, sort, and page through all your spools.
Works well on both Desktop and Mobile
Secure access
Uses the same security key as the main config.
Tip: You can set a fixed key via web-config.
Export to CSV
Download your spool data anytime.
🧭 Web UI Usage Tips
Most of it should be self-explanatory, but here are a few details that might be less intuitive:
