OpenTag Station
OpenTag Station is a touchscreen station for your filament spools. Put a spool on it: it reads the spool's NFC tag, shows which Spoolman spool it is, weighs it and saves the remaining filament to Spoolman. It also writes new tags from your Spoolman records and, if you use FilaBridge, can tell your printer which spool is in which toolhead. That part is optional.

Project status
This manual describes the firmware version shown in the footer; 1.0.0 is the first release. Each version is published from one build in two places: the Releases page, with the update file, and the USB installer. To move a station to a newer version and keep its settings and calibration, update it from its web page with the release's application file.
